Comparison between UAV and Terrestrial Photogrammetry

ParticularsUAV PhotogrammetryTerrestrial Photogrammetry
Data acquisitionManual/Automatic/AssistedManual
Image resolutionHighHigh
Ground coveragem2 – km2m2
VisibilityHighly positioned elements, rooftops, walls, limited when it comes to hidden objects.Walls up to the rooftop, allows photographing hidden objects, no visibility of rooftops.
FlexibilityWeather – dependent, cannot fly to close to the objects around, problematic with too much greenery.Applicable in hazardous areas, works in cloudy, drizzly weather.
Price and operating costModerateLow – moderate
Geo-registration possibilityHigh qualityMedium quality
