Description
Summary:Abstract: The paper shows the advantages of using drones in the photogrammetric inspection of railway engineering facilities, such as bridges and viaducts. The designs of drones dedicated to such research are presented. Methods of mapping such objects are described. Measurements of selected geometric parameters of an exemplary structure of a railway bridge were measured in a computer program based on its photogrammetric model, which creates a framework for improving the management of the inspection and maintenance process.
