COLMAP Description
COLMAP is a general-purpose Structure-from-Motion (SfM) and Multi-View Stereo (MVS) pipeline with a graphical and command-line interface. It provides a wide range features to reconstruct ordered and unorganized image collections. The new BSD license covers the software. The latest source code can be found at GitHub. COLMAP builds upon existing works. Please cite the original authors when you use specific algorithms within COLMAP as they are specified in the source code. The pre-built binaries are available for Windows and include both the graphical interface executables as well as the command-line interface executables. Double-clicking the COLMAP.bat script will launch the GUI. You can also run it from the Windows command line or Powershell. This batch script also allows you to access the command-line interface, which automatically sets all necessary library paths.
