3Dflow (3DF Zephyr)
Photogrammetry software for reconstructing 3D models from photos, video and laser scans
3DF Zephyr is a photogrammetry software package developed by 3Dflow, an Italian company founded in 2011 as a university spin-off. It converts photos, drone imagery, video, and laser scanner data into 3D deliverables such as point clouds, meshes, Gaussian Splats, orthophotos, digital elevation models, and contour lines. The software addresses the need for accurate reality capture and 3D reconstruction from various input sources.
Key capabilities include full photogrammetry pipeline processing with multi-GPU acceleration, generation of Gaussian Splats, satellite map tile integration, and unified selection tools. The product integrates with 3DF Scarlet for LiDAR registration, supporting coarse, fine, ICP, and photogrammetry-based scan registration. A FlowEngine SDK is available as a C++ library for Windows and GNU/Linux, allowing users to build custom reconstruction applications. The software is designed for industries including surveying, mining, construction, architecture, cultural heritage, VFX, gaming, 3D printing, agriculture, and engineering.
3DF Zephyr is offered as a subscription or perpetual license, with a free 30-day trial available. A free version, 3DF Zephyr Free, is also offered. The product is bundled with 3DF Scarlet at no extra cost. Pricing details are not specified on the provided pages.
