Another major 3D software developer who has published their own take on photogrammetry software is Bentley. Given Bentley’s portfolio of sophisticated BIM and CAD software tools, it is no wonder that its ContextCapture can generate 3D models of entire cityscapes without human intervention. Hence, the program is suitable for large infrastructure projects and sites of large size.
Creating 3D models is made easy with a wizard that guides users through the entire process. ContextCapture supports fusing models generated with aerial photography with detailed images shot on street level to increase detail. Alternatively, users can combine photogrammetry with laser scanning for additional accuracy.
To make sense of your data, this photogrammetry software provides the ContextCapture Editor. It enables users to edit meshes, generate cross-sections, extract ground, and break lines. Of course, you can enrich your model GIS and engineering data to support the design process. Render 3D animations and fly-throughs of the 3D model to create engaging presentations and publish them to a custom web viewer for effective communication with collaborators and stakeholders.
