“…Traditionally, deformation monitoring based on geodetic surveying has relied on Total Stations (TSs), Electro Distance Meters (EDMs), or Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSSs) [1][2][3][4]. Even at distances above 0.6 km, these techniques are able to provide consistent 3D coordinates with an accuracy of some millimetres in a well-defined terrestrial reference frame [5][6][7]. However, since they require careful operation and proper addressing of possible sources of error such as atmospheric refraction or instrument calibration, they tend to be time-consuming and can only be rigorously applied to a limited number of accessible points.…”

This study investigates panorama photogrammetry (PPh) as a potential method to collect massive 3D information for long-range deformation monitoring. Particularly, this study focuses on areas with measuring restrictions, i.e., inaccessible objects and distances above 0.6 km. Under these particular conditions, geodetic techniques based on Electromagnetic Distance Meters (EDMs) or Total Stations (TSs) can provide coordinates with a precision better than 1 cm, but only for a limited number of discrete points. For mass capture, Terrestrial Laser Scanning (TLS) is normally the preferred solution, but long-range instruments are expensive, and drawbacks such as weak return signals and non-automatic target recognition appear. As an alternative, PPh is investigated in the well-controlled area of La Muela in Cortes de Pallas, where images are automatically captured from geodetic pillars using a GigaPan device, processed, and then rigorously compared to TLS point clouds. The results obtained after integrating both techniques into a high-accuracy geodetic reference frame show that PPh and TLS provide similar precision to within approximately 4 cm in the range of 0.6–1.0 km. Therefore, considering cost-effectiveness and ease of use, the proposed method can be considered a low-cost alternative to TLS for long-range deformation monitoring.

“…Currently in the world of engineering and surveying, various techniques are used to collect data, including laser scans [1,2], photogrammetry [3,4], total stations [5] and other techniques. While the technology of photogrammetry is not new [6], the software for post-processing and analyzing reality meshes has advanced significantly in recent years.…”

Current surveying techniques are typically applied to survey the as-is condition of buildings, brownfield sites and infrastructure prior to design. However, within the past decade, these techniques evolved significantly, and their applications can be enhanced by adopting unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for data acquisition, up-to-date software for creating 3D reality mesh, which in turn opens new possibilities for much more efficient construction site surveying and constant updating and process management. In this study the workflows of three UAV-based photogrammetry techniques: Real Time Kinematic (RTK), Post-Processing Kinematic (PPK) and Global Positioning System (GPS) based on control points were analyzed, described, and compared to conventional surveying method with Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receiver. Tests were performed under realistic conditions in 36 ha quarry in Lithuania. The results of the relationship between ground sample distance (GSD) and the comparison of volume measurements under each technique, including conventional method were analyzed. The deviation of data collected on field vs. generated in reality mesh, including ground control points (GCPs) and check points (CHPs) with different configurations, was investigated. The research provides observations on each workflow in the terms of efficiency and reliability for earthwork quantity estimations and explains processing schemes with advanced commercial software tools.
