Extensive research has revealed that it is possible to achieve 3D models with an absolute geolocation accuracy of less than 5 cm (read our White paper).Īs is the case with other GNSS environments, according to company materials, challenging GNSS environments can be described as areas where there is sufficient satellite availability for the receiver as a prerequisite for minimum accuracy, but where the signal can be partially shaded or reflected by trees, buildings and other objects. The viDoc RTK rover, synchronized with Pix4Dcatch, geotags the images of a 3D scan in real-time, while connected to any NTRIP service. It can be used with the following support devices: iPad Pro 11 2020, iPhone 12 Pro and iPhone 12 Pro Max equipped with LiDAR sensors. This solution brings together the power of RTK accuracy with the combination of LiDAR and photogrammetry. They can walk around their area of interest to acquire high-precision positional data for individual images. Users can couple the viDoc RTK rover to Pix4Dcatch via Bluetooth and connect to any NTRIP service of their choice. The hand-held RTK rover is a replacement for more expensive ground surveying equipment but is no less accurate in its mission to to achieve 3D, actionable results.

The company is announcing the commercialization and worldwide exclusive distribution of the viDoc RTK rover, enabling ground-based RTK-grade 3D scanning with iOS mobile phones and tablets through the Pix4Dcatch app.Ĭonceived by vigram GmbH., a German company led by professional surveyors, the viDoc RTK rover is designed for accuracy and works with Pix4Dcatch for image acquisition. Amritha Narayanan, Pix4Dcatch Product Manager, provided information on the new ViDoc RTK rover from Pix4D, an industry leader in photogrammetry.
