Free Photogrammetry Software

How do I use Polycam’s free photogrammetry software to make

It’s easy, simply upload your images to create a 3D model with photogrammetry. We recommend using a minimum of 20 images or a video that’s at least 20 seconds. We’ll then process it and construct a 3D model that you can then store and edit within your Polycam account.

How do I make great 3D photogrammetry scans?

We recommend choosing a subject that has lots of surface detail and texture. Take at least 20 pictures or a video captured from all angles.

Creating beautiful 3D photogrammetry scans is easy once you get the hang of it – check out our photogrammetry user guide for more tips.

What is photogrammetry?

Photogrammetry is a technology that captures precise three-dimensional measurements and visual representations of objects, terrain, or structures using photographs. It relies on advanced software to analyze multiple images taken from different angles, enabling accurate reconstruction and measurement of the subject. Photogrammetry finds applications in various industries, including architecture, archaeology, geospatial mapping, and 3D modeling, offering invaluable insights and data for a wide range of projects.
