3D Scan Forum

Downloaded a set of photos and gave Meshroom (open source/free) a shot:

It works!

I really didn’t like this program - it’s kind of slow and ... in general, in my opinion - compared to it, the same 3DF Zephyr is much more interesting, faster to work and "friendlier", in addition.
Although all of them, of course, are inferior to programs such as Agisoft Metashape or Bentley Context Capture.

I takes some parctice I guess

I made a test with photos from my drone. A friends house. Not a perfect result but more
than adeqaute for "digital planning of the garden"-

Have you tried to do the same, for example, in the same Zephyr? Just to compare quality and speed (Zephyr supports up to 50 photos in the free version)

Not tested, but I sounds like I should

Have you some results from Zephyr to show. Most interested.

Hi, Martan
I have no way to check the program from the point of view of aerial photography (but the program has such a function). Therefore, I "scanned" only objects.

Therefore, I suggested that you try to upload your existing photographs of aerial photographs in Zephyr

I like Zephyr!

47 pictures from the same set of pictures in my first try with Meshroom.

Very quick and runs fine on my laptop. Yes, the house looks a bit sad

Visually, as I expected, the resulting model looks prettier than after Meshroom

This was fun. Borrowed photoset (same as original post). I will try more with my drone.

I do not know if these programs can increase the resolution of elements using close-ups (for example, Bentley Context Capture can do this).
P.S. It's also interesting to try what the Pix4D Mapper can do (only I don't have a drone)
