Editing Photogrammetry (section)

=== 3D modeling ===
A somewhat similar application is the scanning of objects to automatically make 3D models of them. Since photogrammetry relies on images, there are physical limitations when those images are of an object that has dark, shiny or clear surfaces. In those cases, the produced model often still contains gaps, so additional cleanup with software like [[MeshLab]], netfabb or MeshMixer is often still necessary.<ref>MAKE:3D printing by Anna Kaziunas France</ref> Alternatively, spray painting such objects with matte finish can remove any transparent or shiny qualities.

[[Google Earth]] uses photogrammetry to create 3D imagery.<ref>Gopal Shah, [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suo_aUTUpps Google Earth's Incredible 3D Imagery, Explained], 2017-04-18</ref>

There is also a project called [[Rekrei]] that uses photogrammetry to make 3D models of lost/stolen/broken artifacts that are then posted online.
