Compass & GPS vs Cartesian Capture

A compass is an instrument used to determine direction. This app helps you find your bearings while hiking, traveling, or when visibility is limited due to fog. The compass app determines the cardinal directions (north, south, east, and west) using the Earth's magnetic field. This compass app displays GPS altitude. It also shows the bearing (azimuth) at the top of the screen. The application allows you to share your current location with others and view your position on a map. To view the aurora, use this compass app to find north in the Northern Hemisphere and south in the Southern Hemisphere. This compass app displays the tilt of the compass and helps indicate accurate directions. You can view today’s sunrise and sunset times. Select a date on the calendar to calculate the sunrise and sunset times for that date.

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+
