OpenDroneMap: State of the Project
09-11, 13:30–14:00 (America/Chicago), Grand C

Come find out what the last 10 years have rendered with OpenDroneMap and get a taste of what's to come.


Aimed at developers and end-users, this presentation will cover the current state-of-the-art of OpenDroneMap, toolkit of easy-to-use free and open source computer vision tools turning 3D photos into 3D geographic data (colorized point clouds, orthophotos, surface models, terrain models, 3D meshes and more), whether the images be sourced from street level photos, building interiors, or from small uncrewed aircraft (drones).

In the last 10 years, OpenDroneMap has not only filled this gap in free and open source software, but it's proprietary alternatives are now advertising themselves as proprietary alternatives to OpenDroneMap. Come and see what we have accomplished together these last 10 years, and get a glimpse at what the future looks like.
