Perceiving the shape and structure of the real three-dimensional world through sensors and
cameras is indispensable across various domains. The 3D reconstruction technology is …

Field investigations of geometric discontinuity properties in rock masses are increasingly
using three-dimensional point cloud data. These point clouds sample the rock mass surface …

This study presents an innovative method for precise measurement and mapping of width
nephograms for blurred cracks on concrete dams. An intelligent segmentation network …

Camera‐enabled unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) provide a promising technique to
considerably speed up the inspection and visual data collection from regions that may …

Small unmanned aircraft systems (sUASs) have emerged as promising platforms for the
purpose of crash scene reconstruction through structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry …

Hydrographic surveys enable the acquisition and processing of bathymetric data, which after
being plotted onto nautical charts, can help to ensure safety of navigation, monitor changes …

Predicting flood wave propagation from reservoir failures is critical to practical flood hazard
assessment and risk management. Flood waves are sensitive to topography, channel …

Uncrewed aircraft systems (UASs) and structure-from-motion/multi-view stereo (SfM/MVS)
photogrammetry are efficient methods for mapping terrain at local geographic scales …

This paper presents new metrics and methods for evaluating the quality of reality capture
plans—commonly used to operate camera‐mounted unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or …

The accuracy of photogrammetric reconstruction depends largely on the acquisition
conditions and on the quality of input photographs. This paper proposes methods of …
