Open Source Software for Close Range Photogrammetry
Meshroom
Meshroom is a free, open-source 3D Reconstruction Software based on the

AliceVision framework. Meshroom is created by The ALICEVISION association which is a
non-profit organization whose ambition is to democratize 3D digitization technologies
from photographs (AliceVision, n.d.).
It has minimum requirements such as: Windows x64, Linux, or macOS Operating
System, recent Intel or AMD CPUs, 8GB of RAM, and about 400MB of hard drive for the
software itself plus space of your data.
Meshroom requires an NVIDIA GPU card with a CUDA compute capability. In case
you do not have a CUDA GPU, you can use the draft meshing option which uses the CPU
for meshing. Meshroom can be got from pre-bulit binaries or from the sources on Github.
Meshroom supports most image formats, including many RAW formats such as
‘.exr’, ‘.rw2’, ‘.cr2’, ‘.nef’, ‘.arw’,… However, it is recommended to use ‘.jpg’, ‘.jpeg’, ‘.tif’,
‘.tiff’ or ‘.png’ at the moment.
Result examples made with Meshroom:
MicMac
MicMac is a free open-source photogrammetric suite that can be used in a variety

of 3D reconstruction scenarios. MicMac has been developed at the National Institute of
Geographic and Forestry Information (IGN) and the National School of Geographic
Sciences (ENSG), since 2003. In aims mainly at professionnal or academic users but
constant efforts are made to make it more accessible to the general public. MicMac allows
both the creation of 3D models and of ortho-imagery when appropriate (MicMac, n.d.).
The software is suitable to every type of objects of any scale: from small object or
statues with acquisition from the ground, to church, castle through drone acquisitions, to
buildings, cities or natural areas through aerial or satellite acquisitions. The tools also
allow for the georeferencing of the end products in local/global/absolute coordinates
system. Some complementary tools open the fields of metrology and site surveying.
One of MicMac strengths is its high degree of versatility. It can indeed be used in
various fields: cartography, environment, industry, forestry, heritage, archaeology
MicMac is an open-source project that aims at being cross platform. Very few
dependencies are mandatory to have the core program work. it is possible to install
MicMac on most x86/x64 platforms (Windows Xp-Vista-7-8-10, Mac OSX, Fedora, RHEL,
Ubuntu...). All results produced by MicMac are exclusively in open data formats (tif, xml,
ply).

Liscensed Software for Close Range Photogrammetry
Agisoft Metashape
Agisoft Metashape is a stand-alone software product that performs

photogrammetric processing of digital images and generates 3D spatial data to be used in
GIS applications, cultural heritage documentation, and visual effects production as well as
for indirect measurements of objects of various scales.
Agisoft Metashape was introduced in 2010 and last updated in 2022. It has 2 kind
of license which are Node-locked and floating. You can access this software for free using
the free 30-day trial.
There are some computer system requirements that need to be fulfilled, such as
Windows (XP and higher) / Linux / Mac OS (10.6+) Operating System, 4 - 8 core Intel or
AMD processor, 2.0+ GHz CPU, 2096Mb of RAM, 64-bit version of software available,
Nvidia GeForce GTX 980 or GeForce GTX 1080 graphic card, and minimum 1Gb of data
storage capacity.
This software supports any digital camera (including Compact, DSLR,

Multispectral, Tetracam, MicaSense) and any lens (including Fisheye). Spherical and
cylindrical panoramas in equirectangular representation. Satellite imagery. Scanned
analog images. Terrestrial Laser Scanner Data. Agisoft metashape has several input image
fomats, such as: JPG, TIFF, OpenEXR, DNG, PNG, BMP, SEQ, MPO, RGB, Single-channel,
and Multi – channel (Geo-matching, n.d.-a).
The price for Agisoft Metashape Standard Edition license is 179USD and for the
Professional edition is 3499USD.

Bentley ContextCapture
ContextCapture is Bentley’s reality modeling software that can quickly produce

3D models of existing conditions for infrastructure projects of all types, derived from
simple photographs and/or point cloud. Without the need for expensive or specialized
equipment, ContextCapture enables users to quickly create and use these highly-
detailed 3D engineering-ready reality meshes to provide precise real-world digital context
for design, construction, and operations decisions throughout the project lifecycle (G2,
n.d.).
Bentley ContextCapture was introduced in 2013 and last updated in 2017. It has
several computer system requirements, such as: Microsoft Windows 7/8/10 Operating
System, preferred to use Intel I7 (4+ cores), 4.0+ Ghz or higher, minimum 8000Mb of RAM
with preferred 64000Mb of RAM, and preferred to use NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti or
TitanX, GTX1080 graphic card.
This software supports All kind of digital RGB image (digital camera, airborne,
UAV/drone, smartphone), and Thermal imagery Video Frames Up to 300Gpixel as image
source. It also supports JPEG, TIFF, RAW, JPEG2000, ECW (RGB and thermal) video frames
extraction from: MP4, WMV, AVI, MOV and MPG files as input image formats (Geo-
matching, n.d.-b).
It has several prices as it has several versions as listed below
RealityCapture
RealityCapture is the state-of-the-art photogrammetry software solution for

producing accurate 3D models from a variety of input media. The software prides itself
on a simple and intuitive UI on top of a rich feature set. You can create virtual reality
scenes, textured 3D meshes, orthographic projections, geo-referenced maps, and much
more from images and/or laser scans completely automatically (RealityCapture, n.d.-b).
It has several computer system requirements, such as: 64bit machine with at least
8GB of RAM, 64bit Microsoft Windows version 7 / 8 / 8.1 / 10 or Windows Server version
2008+ Operating System, NVIDIA graphics card with CUDA 3.0+ capabilities and 1GB
VRAM, CUDA Toolkit 10.2, minimal driver version 441.22. It is also recommended to use
a machine with at least 4 CPU cores, 16GB of RAM and 1024 CUDA cores. If you do not
have the NVIDIA card, you will be still able to run the application and register images, you
will not be able to create a textured mesh. The CPU is required to support SSE4.2
(Streaming SIMD Extensions 4.2) or higher.
In this software, Images / photographs can be loaded in all file formats recognized
by Microsoft Windows, e.g., .bmp, .gif, .ico, .jpeg, .png, .tiff, .dng, .wmphoto, .dds, raw
formats (if Microsoft Camera Codec Pack has been installed). You can import a list of
images as a text file with .imagelist extension. Current laser-scan supported formats are
PTX and E57. For now, only ordered point clouds from terrestrial laser scanners are
supported to import. Ground controls and flight logs are importable in all text formats
(correctly formatted). Components may be imported as Reality Capture Alignment
Components (.rcalign). Image selections can be loaded as .imagelists. Bundle-outs in the
.out format through scene open. Camera poses in .txt. Metadata with the .xmp file
extension. Mesh in .obj format for re-texturing (RealityCapture, n.d.-a).
Price for RealityCapture is listed below.
