GCPs on Pix4Dcloud

vpaerialservices · December 30, 2020, 1:12pm

I’m going between buying pix4dcloud or another service. Can I use gcp’s in pix4dcloud? I got the impression I had to also have mapper as well, which if is the case would be way too expensive.

Thank you

Hi,

GCPs can be used with a Pix4Dcloud Advanced subscription or by using a combination of Pix4Dcloud & Pix4Dmapper.

Here are the instructions for using GCPs in both cases:

With Pix4Dcloud Advanced: AutoGCPs detection functionality. Ensure your project meets all the requirements! If all the requirements are met, all the GCPs will be recognized and automatically marked.
With a combination of Pix4Dcloud & Pix4Dmapper: How to use GCPs for processing on Pix4Dcloud

Let me know if you have any additional questions

No, you CAN’T utilize GCPs with Pix4Dcloud only. With Pix4Dcloud Advanced only, you can utilize GCPs without needing Pix4Dmapper. Pix4Dcloud and Pix4Dcloud Advanced are two different products.
