Best Photogrammetry Software in 2026

In short: WebODM is ranked #1 of 33 as of 4 October 2026, ahead of COLMAP and Polycam. The best-ranked option with a free plan is COLMAP. The lowest first paid tier on this page is KIRI Engine at $6.67/mo.

Photogrammetry tools turn images into outputs such as 3D models and geospatial data. Compare WebODM, OpenDroneMap, and 3Dsurvey on API access, deployment, and the free image limit, then check whether GIS data, orthophotos, or point clouds can be exported. Ground control point support may also matter for your workflow. The ranking runs from WebODM through OpenDroneMap, 3Dsurvey, and OpenReco, with 3DF Zephyr, Agisoft Metashape, PHOTOMOD, and RealityScan among the next entries. Free-plan availability and the listed starting price offer further ways to weigh the options against your project needs.

33 photogrammetry software ranked on what their makers publish — plans and prices, free tiers, platforms and the facts on their own pages.
