This article explains the steps to generate a digital terrain model (DTM).

Access: On the Menu bar, click Process > Generate DTM (enabled once the Raster DSM is generated and the tiles of the Raster DSM are merged).

PIX4Dmapper generate DTM

This process takes as input the merged Raster DSM (Digital Surface Model), computes a classification mask, and generates the Raster DTM (Digital Terrain Model).

Tip: PIX4Dmapper cannot generate an elevation profile. However, once the DTM is exported, it is possible to create an elevation/terrain elevation profile in most third-party GIS applications.
