Aerial Photogrammetry Elevation Map

Aerial Photogrammetry Elevation Map

This is a digital elevation model (DEM) derived from drone photogrammetry showing detailed topography of a site. The color gradient represents elevation differences: purple indicates lower areas, while blue, green, and yellow indicate progressively higher terrain. The model captures fine surface details, including vegetation, structures, and ground features. This type of mapping is ideal for site planning, construction progress documentation, land management, and volumetric analysis.
