New Update Offers Greater Flexibility for Photogrammetry and LiDAR Workflows
SimActive Inc., a leading developer of photogrammetry software, has released Version 10.4 of its Correlator3D platform. This new version gives users more control over 3D model creation, with advanced tools for both photogrammetry and LiDAR data.
Full Control for Diverse Workflows
Correlator3D Version 10.4 introduces a redesigned 3D modeling engine. It allows users to adjust a wide range of parameters during model generation. Unlike many black-box solutions, this version offers customization options that let users tailor results to match project-specific needs.
“This new version provides users with full control over the 3D model generation process, including customizable parameters for both photogrammetry and lidar-based workflows,” said Louis Simard, CTO at SimActive. “The revamped 3D modeling tools in Version 10.4 give our users unprecedented control over their outputs.”
Whether professionals are working with aerial images or LiDAR scans, the update allows them to manage the level of detail, optimize outputs for analysis, or prepare models for easy sharing.
Improved True Ortho Workflow
Version 10.4 also adds a new true ortho workflow. This update sharpens final orthomosaic outputs, improving both visual clarity and spatial accuracy.
“Whether working with imagery or lidar, they can now fine-tune the model to best suit visualization, analysis, or sharing requirements,” Simard added.
The improved ortho feature is particularly useful for users needing high-precision mapping in fields such as infrastructure planning, environmental monitoring, or emergency response.
