Photogrammetry Almanac: Environment PBR Texture Creation

Grzegorz Baran released a mind-blowing guide to photogrammetry which is a result of over a year of his photogrammetry research.

Grzegorz Baran, an artist from Ubisoft, released a mind-blowing guide to photogrammetry which is a result of over a year of his photogrammetry research. The 166-page document covers all key points for building photogrammetry-based PBR textures.

I wanted to scratch my photogrammetry experience together and create something, that would help to save somebody’s time, learn on mistakes I made and best practices I found.

I covered entire process in details from surface capture towards baking, seam removal, tweaking to getting final, useful, tileable in all directions high quality PBR material.

Key software I use: Agisoft Photoscan, ZBrush, Substance Designer and Substance Painter.
