Because the data capture for photogrammetry is usually performed via a conventional DSLR camera, the method is very versatile and mobile.
Taking photographs is usually possible in practically any place where paleontological
specimens are located, be it the field, collection rooms, or exhibitions.
Direct physical access is not required (although it often is helpful), and given the ability to use a tripod and a suitable telephoto lens even specimens that are far out
of reach can be digitized satisfactorily for most research purposes.
