"...URC Ventures, whose software technology that can turn tens of thousands of photographs into a two-billion-point cloud overnight..."

Well, if that software is so great, why doesn't their web-page show any examples or how the software works. All of the solutions mentioned there are, in my opinion inferior to photoscan. But I think I am being biased :)

Me tooo :-)

but i was i contact with one UNI about a year back with solution that is mentioned there, will dig for that contact if they can show on our data what is possible..... will inform you....

But as they mentioned for photogrametry there is need for a lot of practical knowlege....

im curently experimenting with how photos are good for best outputs, and it seems that with lot of photos accuracy go down - when you understand principles of Multiview photogrametry then is it expected.... and as i mentioned earlier we have outputs from whitelight device for comparations.....
