+   - **Tools**: Polycam, 3D Scanner App, OpenMVG, OpenMVS, **Pix4D**, **DJI Terra**.
+   - **Applications**: Architecture, design, AR applications.
+
+2. **Point Clouds**
+   - **Output**: Dense point clouds representing the scanned environment.
+   - **Tools**: PCL (Point Cloud Library), Open3D, **Pix4D**, **DJI Terra**.
+   - **Applications**: Engineering, construction, virtual reality.
+
+3. **Orthomosaics**
+   - **Output**: High-resolution, georeferenced aerial images stitched together.
+   - **Tools**: OpenCV, AWS Lambda, **DroneDeploy**, **DJI Terra**.
+   - **Applications**: Surveying, agriculture, environmental monitoring.
+
+4. **Digital Surface Models (DSM)**
+   - **Output**: Representations of the Earth's surface including all objects.
+   - **Tools**: GDAL, QGIS, **Pix4D**, **DJI Terra**.
+   - **Applications**: Urban planning, forestry, flood risk assessment.
+
+5. **Digital Terrain Models (DTM)**
+   - **Output**: Representations of the bare ground surface.
+   - **Tools**: GDAL, QGIS, **Pix4D**, **DJI Terra**.
+   - **Applications**: Geological studies, hydrology, land use planning.
+
+6. **Contour Maps**
+   - **Output**: Maps showing elevation changes using contour lines.
+   - **Tools**: QGIS, GDAL, **Pix4D**, **DJI Terra**.
+   - **Applications**: Topographical analysis, landscape planning.
+
+### **Cloud and Desktop Applications**
+- **Cloud**: AWS Lambda, Amazon S3, AWS Batch, Azure Maps.
