Pix4Dsurvey
Bridging the gap between photogrammetry and CAD.
Overview
Pix4Dsurvey is a software solution that bridges the gap between photogrammetry/LiDAR and CAD/BIM. It allows users to work with point clouds from various sources and provides tools to simplify and accelerate the process of vectorizing and extracting features like surfaces, profiles, and breaklines for use in engineering and design software.
✨ Key Features
- Vectorization of points, lines, and polygons
- TIN surface creation
- Grid of points and spot elevation extraction
- Works with both photogrammetry and LiDAR point clouds
- Direct integration with Pix4Dmatic and Pix4Dmapper
🎯 Key Differentiators
- Optimized for photogrammetry workflows, especially with other Pix4D products.
- User-friendly interface focused on vectorization.
- Flexible handling of both image-based and LiDAR point clouds.
Unique Value: Streamlines the path from massive point clouds to lightweight, usable CAD and GIS data, significantly reducing manual drafting time.
🎯 Use Cases (4)
✅ Best For
- Extracting breaklines and creating a DTM from a drone-based photogrammetry point cloud.
- Vectorizing road markings and curb lines for a topographic survey.
💡 Check With Vendor
Verify these considerations match your specific requirements:
- Detailed indoor Scan-to-BIM modeling.
- Point cloud registration (requires other software).
🏆 Alternatives
Provides a more focused and intuitive vectorization workflow compared to the broader, more complex toolsets of full civil design packages.
