How do you turn drone imagery into detailed 3D models? In this one-on-one course, you’ll learn how to use Pix4D Mapper to transform aerial photos into high-quality maps and models. With personal guidance and hands-on assignments supported by online modules, you’ll gain practical skills you can apply right away. Ready to take your geospatial expertise to the next level?
Pix4D Mapper is powerful photogrammetry software built to process geospatial data captured by drones. It’s widely used to create precise 2D maps and 3D models of landscapes and objects based on aerial imagery. Whether you work in construction, agriculture, environmental science, or surveying, Pix4D Mapper helps improve both accuracy and efficiency in your projects.
By converting drone images into measurable data, Pix4D lets you map terrain, buildings, and infrastructure with impressive precision. Its advanced algorithms generate realistic textures and calculate geometry accurately—giving you results that are not only visually clear but also data-rich and reliable.
Beyond image processing, Pix4D Mapper supports full geospatial workflows—from data collection to model generation. That makes it an ideal tool for professionals who need fast, scalable, and dependable solutions for mapping tasks.
This course is designed to teach you how to run and analyze photogrammetry projects using Pix4D Mapper. You’ll learn to turn drone imagery into detailed maps and 3D models, and most importantly, understand how to apply these outputs across various industries.
To start, we cover the fundamentals. You’ll learn how drone images are transformed into usable models and maps. From there, you’ll set up your own projects in Pix4D Mapper—importing images and configuring key settings to streamline your workflow.
Next, you’ll move into data processing. You’ll generate point clouds, digital terrain models (DTMs), and orthophotos—essential components for building accurate 3D outputs.
In addition, you’ll explore real-world use cases. Whether it’s surveying, construction, agriculture, or environmental planning, you’ll see how Pix4D helps professionals turn drone data into actionable insights.
By the end, you’ll be ready to run your own photogrammetry workflows with confidence—applying your skills to real projects efficiently and effectively.
Blended learning gives you the best of both worlds—live interaction and flexible, self-paced study—so you can build real, job-ready photogrammetry skills. In this course, you’ll gain hands-on experience with drone data and learn how to use Pix4D Mapper to deliver high-quality spatial outputs.
We kick off with a live session where you’ll dive straight into real datasets. With support from expert instructors, you’ll set up your first project, import aerial imagery, and begin processing it in Pix4D.
Then, through interactive self-paced modules, you’ll expand your knowledge step by step. You’ll cover topics like photogrammetry basics, data types, point cloud generation, and elevation modeling—all at your own pace.
Later, during a second live session, you’ll apply your skills to realistic scenarios. You’ll troubleshoot challenges, refine your workflow, and get expert feedback to sharpen your results.
One standout feature of this course is its focus on real-world application. You’ll produce outputs—such as digital elevation models and textured 3D maps—that you can immediately use in your own projects.
By combining expert-led guidance with flexible learning, this course helps you go beyond the basics. You’ll leave with the confidence to process drone data, manage geospatial workflows, and make smarter decisions with your results.
