PIX4Dengine
Build the future of digitized reality with our fully customizable photogrammetry reconstruction engine
What is PIX4Dengine?
PIX4Dengine is a set of programming modules accessible via Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) and Software Developing Kits (SDKs) for extracting critical information from images, running on your infrastructure or on our cloud, and compatible with other Pix4D solutions.
Our interfaces are built to empower customization, automation and integration into any enterprise system and reality-capture workflows for photogrammetry.
Unlock the power of photogrammetry.
PIX4Dengine API and SDK open the power of Pix4D’s processing algorithms, ready for integration with your system.
Your customized workflow. Your competitive advantage.
Build the photogrammetry software you need
Combine PIX4Dengine with our cloud or with your own platform to create the most efficient mix of flexibility and productivity for your business.
Streamline data management
Store data where you need it: on your infrastructure or on our secured cloud.
Control access to your data, forward processed outputs to users for an interactive review with PIX4Dcloud and share them into your enterprise system.
Automate at scale
Use our powerful programmatic interface to control data handling, and automate time-consuming and repetitive tasks.
Tune algorithmic parameters, build custom logic based on data inputs, and scale your processing pipeline to drastically reduce human oversight.
Made for developers. Trusted by businesses.

The future of accuracy: AutoGCPs
The AutoGCPs feature automatically detects Ground Control Points (GCPs) in your project. A combination of machine learning and computer vision pinpoints the exact center of a GCP with pixel-level accuracy. AutoGCPs work with three types of target Haar patterns: square, diagonal and Aeropoints.
Sky and water segmentation removal
Reduce or completely eliminate noise created by sky and water segments with this new feature. Automatically remove the segments that introduce noise to the point cloud to get smoother, noise-free point clouds and meshes.
Removal of moving objects
With the moving object removal feature, you can automatically tidy your project by removing moving objects that clutter up your orthomosaics. Focus on the important areas and objects to get cleaner, more accurate representations of your project.
Multiple processing areas
Set up a field of focus to protect the privacy of the surrounding areas. Generate outputs reflecting just the target areas (of any shape and number). Apply the selected area to the point cloud, mesh, DSM, and orthomosaic to get more relevant results and eliminate unneeded areas
