Photogrammetry captures relaitu for the CPI
Article Abstract:
Photogrammetry provides chemical process industries (CPI) with accurate plant and equipment detail within 5mm. The cost of using photogrammetry is between $.25 to $.75 per cubic foot. This has prevented most companies from using the technology, many of which see it as additional expense. Other advantages of photogrammetry over traditional methods include more data provided, quicker conversion of measurements, reduces time for data gathering, 3D-CAD formatted result and allows verification for quality control purposes.

Photogrammetry gets real for control
Article Abstract:
An Australian company has developed a low-cost technology that could be used to improve control in processes that handle solid or semi-solid materials. Adam Technology has developed the technology and pilot applications are being tested on gobbets of molten material and also controlling the surface of fast fermenting rubbish.
