Photography based 3D modelling, reconstruction, laser scanning and photogrammetry
Written by Paul Bourke
The following relate to model reconstruction using mainly photographic techniques, often
referred to as photogrammetry, but also from other scanning technologies such as
laser scanning.
I am available as a consultant on matters relating to the material found here.
I can offer an end-to-end photographic 3D reconstruction service, from taking
the photographs, textured mesh reconstruction to mesh editing and clean-up (if necessary).

Reconstruction Portfolio
Pricing to reconstruct objects of your choosing
depends on their nature and is quoted on a case by case basis. For more information
please contact the author by email, preferably with a few photographs of the objects in question.
