Drone Mapping Versus Terrestrial Laser Scanning for Building Mapping and
Assesement
Author(s): Rick Adhikary and Komal Parikh*
Drone mapping and terrestrial laser scanning are two advanced techniques that have been used around the world in recent years for documentation and mapping of buildings with historic value, construction project/infrastructure monitoring, mapping of cities, and a lot more survey. A well-defined methodology for data extraction, modelling, and monitoring is yet to evolve. This study compares and demonstrates terrestrial laser scanning and drone survey for building mapping with validation and accuracy checks. A terrestrial scanner was used to perform three scans of a building and drone was used to capture high-performance vertical images and oblique images. A three dimensional (3D) model was generated using advanced software techniques. Building façade elevation and plans were extracted from the 3D model after validation and accuracy check. The drone model produced high-quality vis.. View more»
