Features

Top Features

  • Survey-grade results
  • Complete control over your project
  • Your workflow, your choice
  • Transform your ground or aerial images in digital maps and 3D models.

Capture

Capture RGB, thermal, or multispectral images with any camera or drone and import them to PIX4Dmapper.

Digitize

PIX4Dmapper’s photogrammetry algorithms transform your ground or aerial images in digital maps and 3D models.

Seamlessly process your projects on your desktop using our photogrammetry software, or bundle with PIX4Dcloud for online processing.

Control

Use the power of photogrammetry in the rayCloud environment to assess, control and improve the quality of your projects.

Use the quality report to examine a preview of the generated results, calibration details, and many more project quality indicators.

Measure & inspect

Accurately measure distances, areas, and volumes.

Collaborate & share

Streamline project communication and teamwork.
Selectively and securely share project data and insights, with your team, clients, and suppliers, using standard file formats.

Survey-grade results

Obtain results with sub-centimetre accuracy thanks to photogrammetric analysis. 1-2 pixel GSD in X, Y directions 1-3 pixels GSD in the Z direction.

Complete control over your project

Define an area of interest, select processing options, add ground control points or edit point clouds, DSMs, meshes, and orthomosaics.

Your workflow, your choice

Use default templates for automatic processing of your projects, or create your own with custom settings for full control over the data and quality.
