Drones Improve Accuracy of Crime Scene Investigation
Handwritten notes on the details of an accident scene are important but pale in comparison to the accuracy of drone-based photogrammetry. The optics used in drone cameras produce highly detailed renderings and 3D models. This level of precision allows professionals to take measurements and run data analysis, long after the scene is cleaned up. Investigators can rely on centimeter-level accuracy to make calculations, ranging from determining the force of impact between two objects to verifying the location of each item within an evidence field.
