Supported drones and cameras - PIX4Dmapper

 


Pix4D offers image acquisition apps for drone and terrestrial captures, along with photogrammetry software that converts images into 2D and 3D outputs for various applications and use cases.

Pix4D's software is image acquisition app-agnostic, meaning PIX4Dmapper can process images from almost any source, provided they are of high quality and have sufficient overlap.  PIX4Dmapper can process images captured using any third party software. For more information: Which image acquisition app can I use with Pix4D's software?

Important: Even if a drone, camera, or device is not compatible with one of Pix4D's image acquisition apps (PIX4Dcapture Pro), this does not mean the images captured with that drone/camera cannot be processed using Pix4D's photogrammetry software such as PIX4Dmapper. In such cases, third-party image acquisition apps can be used to capture the images, which can then be processed using PIX4Dmapper.

 

PIX4Dmapper also has an extensive internal camera database for most of the common drones but can process images from any camera model (RGB, multispectral, thermal). For cameras that do not exist in PIX4Dmapper's camera database, the optimal internal camera parameters can be computed in the software while processing a good dataset. For more information:

Requests to add new camera models to the database can be sent to Technical Support.
