Timber Rose Bed & Breakfast
The owners’ goal was to capture the existing conditions of their 40-acre property and make informed decisions that would lead to a conceptual plan for its development. That includes the location and layout of the buildings, circulation, and utilities.
By flying the drone over the property we were able to capture 471 photos that were processed to output a variety of visuals and data.
3D representation of each of the locations where the camera took a photo.
While on site we’ve taken the opportunity to capture some footage to provide additional context and a sense of scale to the dataset.
Deliverables
Orthophoto overlay on top of the satellite imagery. The drone data provides much more detail and provides an updated snapshot.
High-Resolution Orthophoto: The photos were processed to achieve a single straight image that is distortion-free and was used as a detailed background for our site studies.
Contour lines and dimensions: The drone data also returned a site plan view from which we were able to extract dimensions and contour lines useful to study relationships between buildings, utilities, and terrain slope.
3D Topography: The contour lines have elevation data in them so we were able to generate a three-dimensional topography to host 3D models of the existing and proposed buildings.
Point Cloud: Point clouds are datasets that represent objects or space through points that have the X, Y, and Z coordinate data associated with them. This dataset allowed us to measure heights (on the Z-axis) and produce 3D visuals.
3D model: Starting from the Point Cloud, we generated a 3D model that we used as a visual reference as well as the base for visualization.
3D Viz Twin: An accurate representation (digital twin) of the site that can be used for concept design and presentations. We started from the 3D model and added elements such as vegetation and buildings. The result is a realistic environment from which we can build an unlimited amount of views as well as 3D walkthroughs.
