A computer-implemented method is proposed for creating a three-dimensional model of the environment. The method comprises the steps of planning (105) a trajectory for a moving system carrying an omnidirectional camera comprising a first image sensor facing in a first direction for capturing first images, and a second image sensor facing in a second, different direction for capturing second images; advancing (107) the moving system along the trajectory; triggering (111) the omnidirectional camera at given time instants depending on the speed of the moving system along the trajectory to capture first and second images; obtaining (117) spherical images by selectively combining the first and second images; and creating (119) the three-dimensional model from the spherical images.
