Pix4D

UAV Partners

•  Low grade sensors onboard UAVs: traditional photogrammetry tools not suited

• UAV imagery easily available for professionals: lack of photogrammetry knowledge

• Pix4Dmapper photogrammetry made easy

UAV focus

Pix4Dmapper

Easily convert thousands of aerial images taken by UAV or manned platforms

into geo-referenced 2D mosaics and 3D models

Key benefits

Easiness of use while professionally accurate

Accurate 2D and 3D editing and vectorization

Flexibility of inputs

Scalability

Customer orientation and professional support

Innovation: the rayCloud

•  Introduced in Pix4Dmapper 1.0 •  Connect 3D points with images > rays to the camera centers •  Measure with high accuracy in multiple images •  Improve projection centers and internals

Innovation: Index Calculator

•  Pix4Dmapper 1.1 •  Processing of multi-band data from multiple

sensors, multiple flights

Precision Agriculture meets Pix4Dmapper: from UAV imagery to NDVI in one workflow.

• Processing of fisheye lenses • GoPro, support for all models: light, suited for UAV usage • Close-range objects, buildings, mobile mapping • Solve low overlapping problems

Innovation: fisheye lens support

Local & Cloud solution

•  Critical factors: •  Data privacy •  Internet availability •  Data transfer time

•  Integration as solution •  Mixed local & cloud processing •  Possibility to upload data and/or results •  4D online data visualization •  Licensing server •  Cloud-based support

Disrupting the geospatial industry: UAV vs TLS
