How To Create a 3D Model Using DroneDeploy

Creating a 3D model takes just a few more steps from creating a 2D map and the results are fascinating!

Nice!!!! Don't forget to select that gear icon with "SD", right side of the screen, so it reads "HD", it will improve the look. 👍

How did you do the extra photos at the Shopping Center? Did you orbit around every single building or how did you do this. Also do you have to take all of the photos at one day or can you go home and charge your batteries and come back later if you want more details? Also what altitude do you recommend?
Stunning scans btw, the shopping centre really blew my mind xD

So when is the video coming out how to use dronedepoly to measure stock piles???

[williamlorenzmedia]

Great video. At 6:04 you said you could go back afterward and take additional fill-in photos if you wanted to improve the 3D model, but when I tried going back and doing that the resulting model was completely ruined. Someone told me that all photos need to be done at the same time, due to slight movements in satellites even over a couple of hour period. They said the only way to ad photos is if you are using really well defined Ground Control Points. Can you please confirm that or explain how you are able to do that after the fact. Thanks!

When you export the 3D model, is it georeferenced? This is important if someone is going to utilize the model in a GIS.

Wow! I always wondered how this was done. Now I know. Thanks fro sharing.

[hobbes]

hi, did we make that stockpile volumetric analysis video ?

[CopperStateAerialPhotography]

Hello Billy, Great video! I have a couple of questions. For the 3D model are you using just perimeter shots of the building or overhead shots I.E Orthos. Second Approx how far away from the structure are you when acquiring the photos. Thanks, Mike

Hey Billy, How do you go about hosting the videos for your clients to view? I’ve tried a few like sketch fab and the models just end up looking like garbage. They look so good on drone deploy But I just can’t get the same results after export. What do you do?

Great video Billy, I was wondering does it matter which drone is used to accomplish this?

[ernesthorn]

Probably already has been asked many times, what are you using for a drone? I have a Matrice 30 T can I use that for mapping? I don’t need survey grade.

[EricSNeitzel]

Great tutorial! I’m an avid Drone Deploy user and the tip to take your own shots is totally next level.

[davidwamara]

How did you add the different photos together. How did you reference the points.

[mrspanky]

can you use the mavic air2 s? with drone deploy?

[HappyHealerUSA]

Killed it Billy.. great information. Makes me want to get into it man.. I wanna do my own home. I can include it in my show. Thanks.

Thanks for the video how do you send the maps and 3D models to your clients? Do they have to have any special software?

[alabamatrophyhunters]

What software or app that is free or a lower coast to create a map of a property using drone photos

[lilsouffle]

love the video!! Wanted to ask what plan you subscribe to with drone deply? Considering Business plan, which might be what you have since you took so many shots of that shopping center.

[efhproductions]

When you orbit did you manually orbit using the joysticks or did you use the intelligent flight mode of orbit? I use an inspire 2 and I usually shoot for film and television so this type of drone work is all new to me. Thank you in advance!

how does the client view the delivered project? Havent used Drone Deploy before so just curious how the client sees the model?
