You want LIDAR for making the point clouds, and a camera for colorizing them. Pure photogrammetry is doable (I think that's what Earthmine did for a while?), but it isn't as pretty or accurate.
- snovv_crash 10y agoFor single-point-of-view, yes. Otherwise, if you can take images from multiple viewpoints, there are a bunch of solutions for pure photogrammetry, eg. Pix4d, Photoscan, Capturing Reality. Theoretically, there is enough data in the images to build photorealistic models. Algorithmically, we aren't quite there yet.
