Create a Free 3D model with DJI Mini 3 Pro drone to create a 3D environmental model of any location. It's FUN, and it's free, so there is no reason not to play with 3D mapping.


There are properly some other ways to do it, but I wanted to keep it simple ;-)

Very interesting to see!

i must try this also one time

Interesting!

Looks great.  

Awesome video Henrik.  

thanks Henrik

Here's my attempt.  I couldn't get meshroom to work so tried dronedeploy

Creating 3D models from drone images is an exciting process that combines technology and creativity. First, capture a series of high-resolution aerial images using your drone, ensuring good overlap between shots. Next, use specialized photogrammetry software like Pix4D or Agisoft Metashape to process these images into a 3D point cloud. This point cloud represents the geometry of the landscape. Further processing can turn it into a textured 3D model. Finally, refine the model, apply textures, and export it for use in various applications, such as architectural visualization, land surveying, or environmental monitoring. This approach allows you to transform aerial imagery into valuable 3D assets.

Can these exports you mention export to .stl for 3d printers? Tinkercad even???? Thanks for your reply here very useful
