“______ is a surveying method using photography to create maps and 3D models.”

"Photogrammetry is a surveying technique that uses photography to measure distances and create detailed maps or 3D models. Widely used in geography archaeology and engineering it captures spatial data from overlapping images enabling precise reconstructions of landscapes or objects. Its applications include topographic mapping urban planning and heritage preservation. Advances in drone technology and software have enhanced its accuracy and accessibility making photogrammetry a vital tool in geospatial analysis supporting sustainable development and providing critical data for environmental monitoring and infrastructure projects."
