Benefit from the complementary data capturing techniques for higher quality True Orthophotos and 3D Meshes

• Combine sharp edge resolution of dense image matching with the vertical precision of LiDAR 
  • Benefits for DSM, True Orthophoto and 3D Meshes
• Improve dataset completeness in low coverage areas
  • Occlusions from missing overlap / stereo information
  • Occlusions from narrow streets and yards
  • Fill data gaps from poor radiometry - e.g. in shadow areas
• Use LiDAR data in the 2.5D and 3D workflow out of the box
  • also with Distributed Processing
• Easy to set up – just provide LiDAR clouds – no trajectory file needed

Avoid data gaps – Complement DSM data with LIDAR data in narrow alleys 

3D Mesh – Dense Image Matching	3D Mesh – Dense Image Matching + LiDAR

Reduce noise – benefit from the vertical precision of LiDAR and keep details from dense image matching data

Create seamless True Orthophotos and Mesh Texture with global color balancing 

Without global color balancing	With global color balancing

• Automatically compensate for color and brightness variation in your input imagery
  • compensate effects from different sun inclination angles, exposure times or white balance
  • fully atuomatically balanced True Orthophotos & Mesh texture
  • compensating for brightness shifts and gradients in up to 4 channels
  • only equalizing in order to maintain original coloring average (e.g. for classification)
• Completely automatic process - even when using Distributed Processing

Retrieve 3D point information resolving fine geometric detail with low noise and sharp edges 

BEFORE	AFTER

• Benefit from the reduced noise level and fewer outliers in filtered clouds
• Significant processing throughput improvement for high overlap datasets

Produce lighter 3D mesh models in a shorter time 

• Keep exact edges and retrieve lightweight geometry with new simplification approach
• Save file storage and processing time with the reduced file count and accelerated processing speed
