## Description

Cartesian Capture is a LiDAR and photogrammetry scanning app ideal for GIS professionals, asset management teams, and anyone else who wants georeferenced reality capture. Create high resolution point clouds/meshes or photogrammetric meshes. With support for most coordinate systems used around the world, Cartesian Capture outputs fully georeferenced point cloud and textured meshes in LAS, E57, OBJ, or GLB. 

Cartesian Capture includes:
- Photogrammetric based capture with LiDAR derived scaling.
- LiDAR based capture (Ideal for pits, caves, and other areas where you can't move the camera enough for photogrammetry).
- Two stage alignment for LiDAR scans (feature match + BALM), for aligning scans where there's a misclose or minor loss of SLAM.
- Multiple GIS friendly output formats (LAS, E57, OBJ, GLB).
- Measure directly on the mesh or point cloud.
- Full georeferencing - Location + orientation.

Requirements - LiDAR equipped iPhone or iPad (typically iPhone Pro, iPad Pro). iOS17+
