PIX4Dcloud Advanced, Training, Workflow online course

PIX4Dcloud is a comprehensive cloud platform for processing drone and terrestrial imagery, enabling high-precision construction monitoring, remote site inspections, and complete project documentation. It combines advanced photogrammetric algorithms, next-generation 3D visualization technologies such as Gaussian Splatting, and robust analytical tools to deliver an integrated digital workspace that is accessible directly from any web browser for your entire team.

Key Capabilities

1. 1. Capture — Data Acquisition
   • Terrestrial image capture using PIX4Dcatch + RTK.
   • Centimeter-level absolute accuracy.
   • Support for nadir and oblique aerial imagery, as well as ground photos captured with drones, cameras, smartphones, GoPro devices, and more.
   • Ability to combine imagery from multiple cameras within a single project.
2. 2. Process — Cloud-Based Photogrammetry
   • Fully automated cloud photogrammetry workflows.
   • Generation of accurate, georeferenced outputs:
     • orthomosaics,
     • 3D textured meshes,
     • point clouds,
     • digital surface and elevation models (DSM/DEM).
   • Flexible processing templates and support for any coordinate system.
   • Multispectral data processing with automatic NDVI generation.
3. 3. Analyze — Site Analysis and Comparison
   • Timeline view for visual progress tracking across capture dates.
   • Intuitive web viewer for site monitoring and documentation.
   • 2D/3D comparison tools: split-view and dual-screen visualization across different dates.
   • Overlay of project documentation:
     • IFC models,
     • design plans in .dxf, .pdf, .png, .jpg formats.
   • Measurement tools: distances, areas, volumes, elevation profiles.
   • Virtual inspections with access to original images, comments, and pinned notes.
   • Advanced annotations (points, lines, areas, polygons) with export to CSV, DXF, SHP, and GeoJSON.
4. 4. Share — Collaboration
   • Share projects instantly via a secure URL.
   • Unlimited users per organization at no additional cost.
   • Support for collaborative reviews, discussions, and remote inspections.
5. 5. Integrate — Workflow Compatibility
