Pix4Dsurvey 1.86.1, published by Pix4D, is a desktop application positioned in the surveying and construction CAD category that converts dense photogrammetric point clouds—originating from drone, laser-scan, or satellite imagery—into lightweight, engineering-ready vector drawings. The software ingests .las, .laz, .xyz, and Pix4Dmatic or Pix4Dmapper projects, then offers semi-automatic extraction tools for breaklines, curbs, shoulders, manholes, and stockpile toes; these vectors are written directly to DXF, DWG, or Shapefile formats so that teams can open the same data in AutoCAD, MicroStation, or GIS suites without re-drawing. Typical use cases include topographic surveys for highway design, volume computations in open-pit mines, as-built verification of industrial plants, and drainage mapping for urban resilience projects. Because the workflow retains original image overlays, surveyors can QA/QC every vertex against the source photo, reducing the need for costly field revisits. Six feature releases have appeared since the product’s launch, iterating on coordinate-system management, layer styling, and TIN mesher performance, with version 1.86.1 delivering faster polyline snapping and expanded ESRI coordinate system support. The installer runs on 64-bit Windows 10/11 and requires an OpenGL 4.2 graphics card; licensing is handled through a Pix4D cloud account with offline checkout for field laptops. Pix4Dsurvey is available for free on get.nero.com, where downloads are provided via trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always delivering the latest version and supporting batch installation of multiple applications.
