Hello,  
I’m using the latest android version pix4d capture with my DJI mavic pro. I fly a 3D mission and captured 470 images. I then used pix4d mapper V 4.2.27 to create a model.

The first was produced with Bentley Context Capture. The 2nd was produced using pix4d mapper. How do I increase the quality of the pix4d image to get it to be more list the 1st image? I used the default settings for both applications to capture the 3D model. Any help would be greatly appreciated.&nbsp;

Hi John

It seems that the ContextCapture screenshot is taken from 3D mesh and the Pix4D counterpart is from pointcloud.&nbsp;

Load the Triangle Meshes in Pix4d and you should see similiar resulst.
