Bonjour,

j’ai travaillé sur Pix4DSurvey un modèle produit sur Pix4DMapper. Je cherche à visualiser la vectorisation en 3D sur un logiciel tiers pour le proposer à un client. Archicad ne m’affiche qu’une vue de dessus, et pas moyen d’avoir le rendu 3D. Est ce que Autocad ou Revit pourraient le faire? Ou alors connaissez vous une autre application?

Merci d’avance.

A.Perier

I also would like to know how to do a 3D model.Also, want to know if there is a feature that tells the cut and fill volumes in the survey.

Hi @axyelis and @rayavarapunani,

thank you for your messages.  
Could you please provide more information on what you are trying to do?  
You can find of the PIX4Dsurvey outputs and filetypes here:

> **[Outputs - PIX4Dsurvey](https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/360034534111-Outputs-PIX4Dsurvey)**
>
> Outputs of PIX4Dsurvey
> PIX4Dsurvey can generate the following outputs which can be exported for use with third-party software:

> Point clouds...

Regarding the volume, if you are using the volume tool you can read cut and fill:

> **[Volume measurement - PIX4Dsurvey](https://support.pix4d.com/hc/en-us/articles/4405473285777-Volume-measurement-PIX4Dsurvey)**
>
> PIX4Dsurvey's volume measurement tool measures the volume between a base surface (defined by a volume polygon) and the local TIN. As a default, this method connects all the vertices and triangulate...

You can also use an existing polygon, right click and move it to the volume layers.

Hi. I was actually thinking of using cut fill analysis to monitor the work site. Some =thing similar to the video i am sharing here. [Construction Site Earthworks Monitoring [DIRT] - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j_R4xs7jJHI)

Is there any way Pix4D can do the same?

Hi, thank you for the video.  
If I understand correctly, you want to perform volume calculations between two different surveys.  
Does this feature request meet your request?

> [@Volume calculation between 2 diferent point clouds](https://community.pix4d.com/t/volume-calculation-between-2-diferent-point-clouds/23697):
>
> Hi. If we can import diferent point clouds (las files) to Survey, and individualy calculate volumes in each point cloud, can’t you make an option for calculation directly the diference between the 2 volumes, and put it in a report?

Feel free to add your request in that thread and add a comment 😉
