How do I process my images into a 3D model?

Created by METAGEO Support, Modified on Sun, 21 May, 2023 at 6:55 PM by METAGEO Support

Currently METAGEO doesn't do photogrammetry data processing (the art and science of combining photos to make 3D models.) We can host images, rasters (orthophotos, DEMS, etc), vectors (contours, points, lines and polygons), point clouds, and 3D Mesh Models. In the future, we will have some integrated options for processing.


You can use a number of the paid or free photogrammetry software out there to process data to load into METAGEO.


Here's a list of some apps and programs to do data processing:
