Close range digital photogrammetry - Applications
- Measure relative location of pipes in piping systems prior to and reference it during retrofitting.
- Inspect new machine parts prior to installation and periodic inspection of blades, tooling, and jigs to confirm that they meet specifications, eliminating trial and error approach.
- Monitor deformation of castings and boilers due to temperature changes and other factors.
- Document accurately locations of all key machine components after shutdown and be able to refer to them as needed during future shutdowns.
- Recording of crime or accident scenes for reconstruction.
- Ship checks for damage repair or planned alterations.
- Plant as-builts for revamp or configuration management.
- Measurement of molds, patterns or models for input to a CAD database.
- Recording of historical structures or archeology sites for preservation.
- Rapid or unobtrusive measurement in dangerous or radioactive environments.
- Measurement of large structures for prediction of fit.
- In-process checks for piping and machining shop drawings.
- Dimensional verification for quality inspection.
- Monitoring of dimensional deviation during loading or environmental changes.
- Aerial Photogrammetry.
- Simultaneously and precisely reference, with respect to each other or within the desired coordinate system, unlimited number of objects or points of interest spread over a large area that have been captured on the image.
