3D reality capture is a process of scanning and capturing any site, for example plants, buildings or crime scenes, in a 3D digital model, combining measurements and imagery. The resulting model can be used for design and comparison purposes, to ensure site safety in inhospitable environments or as evidence in a criminal case, capturing every detail with to-the-millimetre accuracy. As technology has become smaller, more affordable and more automated, 3D reality capture has become increasingly accessible to a wider range of applications, putting control in the hands of those that may have required specialists in the past.
