Esri and Pix4D Launch Real-Time Terrestrial Mapping Workflow

Alliance Brings Seamless Integration of Asset Data into ArcGIS for PIX4Dcatch Users 

 

  • Pix4D joins with Esri to launch new terrestrial scanning workflow for infrastructure-focused organizations.
  • Esri and Pix4D workflow lets field teams capture accurate 3D models and augmented reality using PIX4Dcatch app data integrated directly into ArcGIS Online in real time.
  • New integration enables users to document subsurface assets with seamless precision.
  • Workflow brings high-fidelity, georeferenced documentation and instant verification to the project lifecycle for improved accuracy.
  • Explore the PIX4Dcatch app and publish 3D data to ArcGIS Online.

REDLANDS, Calif.—February 16, 2026—Esri, the global leader in geographic information system (GIS) technology, has launched a terrestrial mapping workflow with Pix4D. A Switzerland-based photogrammetry software company, Pix4D specializes in mobile reality capture and site-digitization. The combined workflow allows field teams to capture and process asset data and manage it within ArcGIS, Esri’s geospatial platform.

Field teams use the PIX4Dcatch app with real-time kinematics (RTK) devices to scan trenches and infrastructure. The generated high precision georeferenced records can now be published into Esri’s ArcGIS Online. Scans become 3D models and point clouds, viewable as a Scene Layer. Existing data can also be visualized in augmented reality for instant “as-designed” versus “as-built” verification before closing trenches. 

“We are focused on turning hidden infrastructure into functional data,” said Andrey Kleymenov, CEO of Pix4D. “By connecting PIX4Dcatch with a compatible RTK device to the Esri ecosystem, we are enabling a terrestrial-scanning workflow that allows teams to update a master geodatabase with professional accuracy.”

“We are happy to work with Pix4D to offer infrastructure-focused organizations a seamless, direct path from the field into a geodatabase,” said Thomas Fair, Director, Esri Partner Network. “This new integration with ArcGIS will provide users with high-fidelity documentation of subsurface assets.” 

Download the PIX4Dcatch app and start publishing 3D data to ArcGIS Online today.
