Useful softwares for MicMac
GUI
AperoDeDenis
You can use AperoDeDenis which try to be a global and easy to use alternative GUI to use MicMac.
It is developed by Denis Jouin from the Cerema (Centre d'études et d'expertise sur les risques, l'environnement, la mobilité et l'aménagement, french public institute).
The main repository to download documentation and software is hosted on GitHub.
Micmac and Meshlab/CloudCompare (see below) have to be set up before to use AperoDeDenis.

Here are some really useful tools to visualize the different 3D products :
- MeshLab : http://www.meshlab.net/ (all platform are supported). This software is generally used for points clouds visualization, surface reconstruction and texturing.
