How to process a single step - PIX4Dmapper

This article explains how to process a single step, when creating a new project or for existing projects in PIX4Dmapper.

Information: It is possible, and recommended, to process the project one step after the other:
  1. 1. Initial Processing
  2. 2. Point Cloud and Mesh
  3. 3. DSM, Orthomosaic and Index
Tip: In particular, it is strongly suggested to run step 1, which performs the calibration of the images and the 3D reconstruction, first and to analyze the results before going further with steps 2 and 3. For more information: Quality Report Help.

New project

To process step 1 only, proceed as follows:

  • When creating a new project:
    • Uncheck the Start Processing Now box at the end of the wizard before clicking Finish.

Warning: This also applies in case only step 2 or only step 3 has to be processed. Uncheck any steps that should not be re-run as it would erase previous results.
