## What it is
A curated guide to photogrammetry covering tools, libraries, techniques, and learning resources for 3D reconstruction from images and LiDAR. It spans topics like structure-from-motion, point cloud processing, SLAM, NeRF, and applications in surveying, gaming, and robotics.

## Use cases
- learn photogrammetry from scratch
- find tools for 3D reconstruction from photos
- get started with LiDAR and point cloud processing
- learn structure from motion and multiview stereo
- find photogrammetry resources for drone surveying
- explore NeRF and SLAM learning materials
- find courses and books on 3D scanning

## When to choose
- you want a curated starting point for learning photogrammetry
- you need an overview of tools and libraries across the 3D reconstruction ecosystem
- you want links to tutorials, courses, and books on LiDAR, SLAM, and NeRF

## When to avoid
- you need production-ready software rather than a resource list
- you want a maintained code library with a license
- you need in-depth step-by-step tutorials rather than curated links

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: documentation, image-processing, geospatial
- domain: tutorials, awesome-lists, computer-vision, graphics
- platform: cross-platform
- tags: photogrammetry, structure-from-motion, lidar, point-cloud, 3d-reconstruction, slam, drones, nerf, gis, maps
