“…Drone-based photogrammetric studies have assessed the body length of killer whales (Orcinus orca) [119], sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) [91], and several species from the family Balaenopteridae [24,25,84,[116][117][118]140], as well as other parameters such as the dorsal surface area [26,44,81,112] or total body volume [72,82,[85][86][87][88]90,96], which have been used to estimate the body condition. Photogrammetric studies assessing body volume and body condition have been widely applied for baleen whale species [23,26,27,44,60,72,[81][82][83][85][86][87][88]90,112,141] and medium and large odontocetes [61,62,96,[120][121][122]. However, they have also been shown to be feasible and reliable for smaller marine mammals such as dolphins [63,126], porpoises…”
