Abstract

Photogrammetry requires capturing a series of overlapping photographs with specific properties, from which a three-dimensional reconstruction is subsequently obtained. The quality of the models obtained on the basis of photogrammetry depends not only on the software used, but also on the shooting conditions, different number of images (number of cameras), settings, spatial orientation, etc. Manufacturers of photogrammetry software provide some advice on how to take photographs, but this information is often insufficient. The article discusses the issues of improving the quality of 3D photogrammetry reconstructions by planning the survey. To conduct experiments, it was proposed to use a simulation approach - a virtual studio that simulates the process of photography in a 3D computer modeling environment. The resulting sequence of photorealistic images of the test object can be processed using evaluation software to calculate a 3D point cloud. The mathematical apparatus for comparing test models and 3D reconstructions is based on the Hausdorff metric.
