GRAPHOS – open‐source software for photogrammetric applications

Abstract

Abstract This paper reports the latest developments for the photogrammetric open‐source tool called GRAPHOS (inte GRA ted PHO togrammetric Suite). GRAPHOS includes some recent innovations in the image‐based 3D reconstruction pipeline, from automatic feature detection/description and network orientation to dense image matching and quality control. GRAPHOS also has a strong educational component beyond its automated processing functions, reinforced with tutorials and didactic explanations about algorithms and performance. The paper highlights recent developments carried out at different levels: graphical user interface ( GUI ), didactic simulators for image processing, photogrammetric processing with weight parameters, dataset creation and system evaluation.
