Photogrammetry Processing - Common Hardware and Software Issues

Photogrammetry requires complex processing and data crunching to turn photos into 3D models. We need a powerful machine to run the software and all its processes. Not only that, but the software within our machine may impact the performance of photogrammetry software in various ways.

Most Asked Photogrammetry Questions Part 2 - Pixpro Software

We created Pixpro photogrammetry software to bring photogrammetry to everyone. Our priority was always accessibility and ease of use. We think we did a good job designing software that is easy to use, and it takes just a few hours to understand all of the main features.

Most Asked Photogrammetry Questions - Our Answers Part 1

As software developers, we receive excellent feedback and questions from our existing and potential clients. Their questions range from what hardware to buy for photogrammetric processing to the best technique for a particular scanning scenario.

Quick Vehicle Accident Documentation with Photogrammetry

Photogrammetry is the ultimate form of documentation. If you are adept at doing photogrammetric scans, you can gather photographic data, resulting in a 3D scene that you can measure. Invaluable when the dependability of the data means solving disputes between people during legal processes.

True Orthophoto - Orthorectified Imagery and Pixpro Workflow

Orthorectified or true orthophoto concepts can still be misunderstood and confused with other types of aerial imagery, such as panoramas or orthomosaics. In this article, we revisit these concepts to explain why actual photogrammetry is necessary to create a true orthophoto.

Weather Conditions for Photogrammetry - Rain and Fog

Winter in the northern hemisphere can be a severe limiting factor for millions of jobs. Including us - photogrammetrists who do aerial photogrammetry. In this blog post, we push the limits of wet weather and do some tests in heavy fog conditions and during light rain.

Pit Volume Measurement in Pixpro Photogrammetry

Volumetric measurements are a staple use case for photogrammetry. When it comes to negative volumes such as pits, basins, or valleys - things become even more straightforward than measuring piles of mounds of material.

Multi Camera Photogrammetry in Pixpro

Using two or more cameras in a single scan provides better coverage, detail, and convenience. But it also poses a few challenges. In this blog post, we will go over the fundamentals of combining two or more different imagery sources to get a successful 3D reconstruction in one go.

Comparing Surfaces in Pixpro Part 1 - Creating Custom GCPs

Comparing surfaces from photogrammetric scans is a ubiquitous workflow in some industries. Our Pixpro photogrammetry software allows us to compare a few surfaces in a uniquely easily accessible manner.
