What is photogrammetry?
Photogrammetry is the art and science of extracting 3D information from photographs. The process involves taking overlapping photographs of an object, structure, or space and converting them into 2D or 3D digital models.
why use photogrammetry for oyster reefs?
This process will allow for us to monitor change over time! We can take a 3D "snapshot" of a reef, and repeat the process again and again using coordinates and preset transect points, which will allow us to view and track native oyster recruitment, vegetation growth, and ecosystem development!
