CASP routinely conduct land- and drone-based photogrammetry surveys and has an established workflow for the creation of VOMs. Drones in particular offer significant advantages over traditional remote sensing systems; they are cost-effective, high resolution, readily transportable and flexible. 

In addition to their research value, VOMs enable CASP to offer cost-effective virtual fieldtrips for remote, high-relevance geological analogues that are otherwise inaccessible.

CASP reports that have used virtual outcrop models can be seen here.
