Problems solved by technology

However, the general single-angle measurement cannot meet the requirements for building high-quality 3D models. The traditional solution is to carry multiple angle cameras on a drone, which undoubtedly increases the requirements for the load capacity of the drone.

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for rapidly constructing a three-dimensional terrain model by use of an unmanned aerial vehicle for multi-view camera shooting, the method comprises the following steps: collecting terrain information of a region to be surveyed; selecting a type of the unmanned aerial vehicle for aerial camera shooting according to the terrain information of the region; using control software to upload a flight mission to the unmanned aerial vehicle to enable the unmanned aerial vehicle to fly according to a predetermined flight altitude and flight path and meanwhile shoot the ground from multiple perspectives; using 3D model generation software to process collected images to reconstruct the three-dimensional model of the shot region. By use of the flying stability and flexibility of the multi-rotor unmanned aerial vehicle, low-altitude remote sensing measurement can be performed based on the theory of three-dimensional reconstruction of the images, automation and intelligence of a geographic mapping process can be realized through flight path planning and multi-view camera shooting of the unmanned aerial vehicle, precision and efficiency of geo-mapping can be improved, the workload in the geo-mapping is greatly reduced, and the method has the advantages of high degree of automation, large measuring range, low cost and convenient operation and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of three-dimensional digital terrain reconstruction, in particular to a method for collecting ground images and constructing a three-dimensional terrain model by using an unmanned aerial vehicle. Background technique [0002] Image-based 3D reconstruction is a method to restore 3D models of objects and scenes from several 2D images. This method involves many disciplines such as computer image processing, computer graphics, computer vision and pattern recognition. Compared with the traditional method of using modeling software or 3D scanner to obtain a three-dimensional model, the method based on image 3D reconstruction has low cost, strong sense of reality, and high degree of automation, so it has broad application prospects. At present, this technology has become a research hotspot in 3D reconstruction. [0003] The basic process of image-based 3D terrain reconstruction method is to use the camera to take a series ...
