    WHAT IS CONTEXTCAPTURE CENTER?

    Generate detailed 3D reality meshes using photographs or Lidar point clouds for the largest scale projects such as cities. ContextCapture Center has great computation power and can easily handle extremely large projects. It leverages grid computing to dramatically speed processing time by running multiple engines on several computers and associating them to a single job queue. You can speed production with the latest computing systems for desktop and cluster processing units, including GPU computing, multicore computing, advanced bundle block adjustment, tiling mechanisms, task queuing and monitoring, grid computing, and ultra-large project management.

    CAPABILITIES

    Input unlimited data

    Use an unlimited number of photographs and/or LiDAR point clouds to generate 3D models of existing conditions.

    Handle any size and precision

    Produce multi-resolution meshes of unlimited scale and precision.

    Deliver on time

    Benefit from the fastest processing available today and leverage parallel processing by creating a farm of multiple engines to meet your most demanding deadlines.

    Automate object or region classification

    Benefit from 3D machine-learning technology to automatically detect, locate, and classify your reality data.
