Digital Photogrammetric System
Experience a superior quality of photogrammetric production.
inpho’s photogrammetric system provides a complete software solution for all standard tasks in a digital photogrammetric project, including geo-referencing, DTM generation, orthophoto production and 3D feature collection. Its modules can be used as a complete, perfectly tuned system, or as flexible, individual components, which integrate easily into any photogrammetric production workflow.
A wide range of digital imagery is supported, including scanned aerial film frames, images from digital aerial cameras as well as various satellite sensors.
INPHO's system is designed for processing the most demanding photogrammetric projects with block sizes of 20000 images and even more.
The main advantages of inpho’s system are its rigorous mathematical modeling for top accuracy, and its smooth workflow and high degree of automation for supreme productivity.
Many hundreds of photogrammetric service providers all over the world are relying on inpho’s competence in photogrammetry. We offer our customers an optimal blend of rigorous theory and know-how of photogrammetric systems along with sophisticated software engineering.
The components of inpho’s photogrammetric system are delivered with ApplicationsMaster, the new core of the system. It provides a comprehensive collection of basic tools for project definition, data import and export, coordinate transformation, as well as image preprocessing, image orientation and DTM handling.
 | ApplicationsMaster
Core of the system, providing the common user interface and allowing to start the system components. | |
| MATCH-AT
Fully automatic aerial triangulation for geo-referencing of any frame imagery from digital or analogue cameras. | |
| MATCH-T
Automated extraction of highly precise digital terrain models from aerial or satellite imagery. | |
| DTMaster
Efficient quality control and editing of up to 50 million DTM points, underlaying blocks of stereo imagery or orthophotos. | |
| OrthoMaster
Rigorous orthophoto production from aerial or satellite imagery, including true-orthophoto. | |
| OrthoVista
