UAS Orthophoto

An orthophoto of the TUM Downtown campus was generated using images acquired in the frame of a Uncrewed Aerial Systems (UAS) laser scanning campaign (see UAS photographs). The orthophoto is derived after photogrammetric reconstruction with Pix4Dmatic (version 1.58.1), producing a point cloud and orthophoto (based on a derived digital object model). The resulting orthophoto image has a resolution of 1.6 cm.
