New Trimble Inpho 5.4 Software Suite

The software release significantly improves the quality of point clouds created solely from aerial images using image matching, achieving a density of up to one point per pixel. This method provides very dense, accurate and complete digital terrain models suitable for true orthophoto production and automatic feature extraction, offering a cost-effective alternative to laser scanning. Inpho 5.4 also achieves performance improvements through the introduction of parallel processing along with new filtering and tiling strategies for point clouds. As a result, orthophoto generation, image adjustment, global tilting, seam line detection and ortho-mosaicking significantly outperform earlier versions. In addition, the version includes new graphical analysis, point cloud viewing and interactive image enhancement tools designed to enrich data visualization and manipulation for large projects.
