Cartesian Capture vs SlopeCheck

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+

Check ground slope in seconds using your iPhone or iPad's LiDAR scanner. Point the camera at the ground in front of you and the app fits a plane to the LiDAR depth data in view, compares it against true vertical (using the device's gyroscope to track gravity), and shows a live slope ratio — no tapping, no setup, just point and read. FEATURES • Live V:H slope ratio (e.g. 1 : 2.0), updated in real time • Slope angle in degrees shown alongside the ratio • Gravity-referenced via the device gyroscope, so readings stay accurate regardless of how you're holding the phone • Smoothed, jitter-resistant readout built for real fieldwork, not a lab bench BUILT FOR Earthworks, grading, drainage falls, batter checks, and general utility slope verification — anywhere you'd otherwise reach for a line level or inclinometer. REQUIREMENTS Requires a LiDAR scanner: iPhone 12 Pro or later (Pro models) or iPad Pro (2020 or later).
