Pix4D is a developer of cutting-edge software that converts images taken by hand, by drone, or by plane into survey-grade accurate and geo-referenced 2D maps, 3D surface models and point clouds.
These outputs are particularly useful for professionals in Surveying & Construction, Agriculture and Public Safety. Pix4D develops the apps for capturing the images, processing them, assessing, editing, inspecting, reporting, sharing and exporting to industry compatible standards. Mobile, cloud, desktop.
Founded in 2011, Pix4D is rapidly expanding from its headquarters in Lausanne, Switzerland, to offices in Denver, Shanghai, Berlin, Bucharest, Madrid and Tokyo.

Hello. I really liked the video. Now i would like to know, where can i find the metadata to calculate the invariant depth index for underwater images? Iam using RGB camera. Thank you
Hi Nércia! So, PIX4Dmapper Index Calculator does not support computing indices that take the depth of camera underwater into account. You'll probably need a third party tool and you'll probably need the reflectance maps, the DSM and the camera model parameters (that are computed during PIX4Dmapper processing step 1). You'll then be able to estimate the invariant depth index by taking into account the elevation of the camera relative to the elevation of the surface of the water so you can determine how far under the water the camera was when it captured each image. I hope this helps. Feel free to post further questions in our community forum: community.pix4d.com/c/pix4dmapper/45
Hi Ariel! RTK is optional, so no base station was needed. If you are looking for RTK accuracy you could use the DJI base or any nearby base network corrections.
Great progress! Is this going to be available on the local server (non cloud) processing environment. Even though the cloud solution is great from the collaboration point, there is an issue having the client data on some server that can be in the different continent. Is there a solution for this?
This package is "designed for the public safety and emergency response sector." Might be a dumb question, but is its use *restricted* to the public safety and emergency response sector? Thanks!
What does Pix4D recommend for minimum overlaps when acquiring the imagery? If time is of the essence, and overlap greatly affects flight time and number of images captured then what are the minimums for React to work as advertised.
