Today, photogrammetry is a popular science due to its ease of application, low cost, and good results. Based on these causes, it is becoming a good alternative to scanning. This has led to its implementation in different sectors such as the archeological, architectural, and topographical for application in element reconstructions, cartography, or biomechanics. This chapter presents the fundamental aspects of this technology, as well as its great possibilities of application in the engineering field.}, keywords = {3D scan}, keywords = {reverse engineering}, keywords = {3D design}, keywords = {point cloud}, keywords = {CAD}, keywords = {virtual model}, keywords = {3D reconstruction}, keywords = {virtual assembly}, keywords = {augmented reality}, keywords = {virtual reality}, title = {Photogrammetry as an Engineering Design Tool}, doi = {10.5772/intechopen.92998}, author = {Valerga Puerta, Ana Pilar and Jimenez-Rodriguez, Rocio Aletheia and Fernandez-Vidal, Sergio and Fernández Vidal, Severo Raúl}, }
