Description
PIX4Dmatic, a photogrammetry software designed for processing large datasets with ease, specifically tailored for professional drone and terrestrial mapping. It processes thousands of images while maintaining survey-grade accuracy and significantly reduces processing time compared to splitting and merging datasets. Developed in close collaboration with surveyors and mapping professionals, PIX4Dmatic streamlines workflows by allowing users to import, process, and assess the quality of projects efficiently. It generates dense point clouds, 3D textured meshes, DSMs, and orthomosaics, and can be seamlessly integrated with PIX4Dsurvey for further analysis and vectorization.
optimized software for the next surveying and mapping challenges
Bigger datasets, accurate results
PIX4Dmatic processes thousands of images while maintaining survey-grade accuracy, halving the processing time, without the trouble of splitting and merging.
Fully automated processing
Developed in close-collaboration with surveyors and mapping professionals to streamline your workflow: import, process and assess the quality of a project in just a few clicks, and move seamlessly from PIX4Dmatic to PIX4Dsurvey.
Terrestrial workflow
Leverage the benefits of both photogrammetry and LiDAR technology. Process LiDAR and RGB image outputs from PIX4Dcatch for a full terrestrial workflow. Easy and desktop-based.
Accurate 3D maps and models from thousands of images
Fast processing
Handling and processing large amounts of data is easy with PIX4Dmatic.
Get your results up to 50% faster, while keeping a survey-grade accuracy.
Easy accuracy checks
Ensure the accuracy of your project with GCPs, Checkpoints, or Manual Tie Points. Accuracy metrics are available in a dedicated tie points table and in an exportable quality report.
Vertical coordinate systems and geoid support
PIX4Dmatic supports the most frequently used vertical coordinate systems and their corresponding geoids.
Import from PIX4Dcatch
Process both LiDAR and RGB image outputs from PIX4Dcatch.
Fast development cycles
Updates are released every three weeks in a new preview or stable version, ensuring you get all the latest improvements and features.
Essential outputs, in a fraction of the time
without compromising accuracy
Point cloud
Export formats:
.laz
.las (1.2 and 1.4)
.xyz
Orthomosaic
Create orthomosaics that are geometrically corrected such that the scale is uniform. They are color balanced in order to be visually pleasing.
.tiff (GeoTIFF)
.jpg (Georeferenced with .jgw)
.tfw
.prj
Digital surface model (DSM)
Generate a digital representation of all objects in the mapped area. It includes natural features as well as elevated objects, like buildings.
.tiff (GeoTIFF)
.tfw
.prj
Mesh
Generate a 3D textured mesh by defining the texture size and decimation criteria and view it either in textured or shaded mode.
Export format:
.obj
.slpk Cesium 3D Tiles
.laz
Compatible with PIX4Dsurvey
Seamless export of processed projects into PIX4Dsurvey to transform point clouds into actionable CAD-ready data. Pix4D’s proprietary .bpc file format is optimized for loading and manipulation of big point clouds.
