Introduction

MicMac is a free open-source (Cecill-B licence) photogrammetric suite that can be used in a variety of 3D reconstruction scenarios. In aims mainly at professionnal or academic users but constant efforts are made to make it more accessible to the general public.

One of MicMac strengths is its high degree of versatility. It can indeed be used in various fields : cartography, environment, industry, forestry, heritage, archaeology,...

MicMac allows both the creation of 3D models and of ortho-imagery when appropriate.

The software is suitable to every type of objects of any scale : small object or statues with acquisition from the ground, to church, castle through drone acquisitions, to buildings, cities or natural areas through aerial or satellite acquisitions. The tools also allow for the georeferencing of the end products in local/global/absolute coordinates system. Some complementary tools opens the fields of metrology and site surveying.

Examples

This is some examples of some missions computed with MicMac.

Digitalizing Chambord castle

Two missions of two weeks each ones were organised in Chambord castle during autumn 2014-2015 in order to digitalize this national monument. This missions harness students of the PPMD master to realize some fieldworks such : laser scanning, photogrammetry, topography, geodesy, remote sensing, etc... The student have for example surveyed the fronts of the castle :
