Pix4D is a Swiss company which started in 2011 as a spinoff of the École Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne (EPFL) Computer Vision Lab in Switzerland.[1] It develops a suite of software products that use photogrammetry[2][3] and computer vision algorithms to transform DSLR, fisheye, RGB, thermal and multispectral images into 3D maps and 3D modeling.[4][5]

Pix4D suite of products includes Pix4Dmapper, Pix4Dfields, Pix4Dcloud, Pix4Dinspect, Pix4Dscan, Pix4Dreact, Pix4Dsurvey, Pix4Dcatch, Pix4Dmatic, Pix4Dcapture, and Pix4Dengine.

Its software lines operate on desktop, cloud, and mobile platforms.[6] Pix4Dmapper has been used to map the Matterhorn mountain in Switzerland,[7] the Christ the Redeemer statue in Brazil [8] and also the 2018 lower Puna eruption[9] in Hawaii island.
