About This Product

PIX4Dcatch is a mobile 3D scanning application that turns a compatible smartphone or tablet into a practical field data-capture tool. It records images together with positional and orientation information and, on supported iOS devices, can also use LiDAR depth data.

The captured information can be converted into detailed 2D and 3D models using the PIX4D processing ecosystem. When paired with a compatible RTK receiver, PIX4Dcatch can provide highly accurate georeferencing for professional surveying and mapping workflows.
