SimActive Adds Interactive Mode to Correlator3D for Faster Photogrammetry Workflows

September 9, 2026 by staff Leave a Comment

The new interactive mode runs multiple scripts in a single session, cutting delays between operations for repetitive photogrammetry pipelines.

SimActive announced a new interactive mode in Correlator3D that shortens automated photogrammetry workflows. Users can run multiple scripts in succession within the same session. The mode removes delays between operations and reduces total execution time. Correlator3D is SimActive’s photogrammetry suite for turning aerial and satellite imagery into orthomosaics, digital surface models, digital terrain models and point clouds.

Correlator3D interactive mode for repetitive workflows

The feature targets repetitive workflows that involve several short scripts. Users often script Correlator3D through its command-line interface for unattended processing on batch servers. Correlator3D remains ready for the next operation after each script completes. Each script restart otherwise carries software startup overhead. Keeping Correlator3D loaded avoids that delay between queued jobs. The software also generates completion messages for integration with external automation tools. Operators can queue script sequences without manual handoffs between them.

“Automation plays an important role in large-scale mapping workflows,” said Louis Simard, chief technology officer at SimActive. “This new mode helps users complete automated workflows faster, particularly when numerous short operations must be performed.”

Photogrammetry automation webinar

SimActive will host a webinar titled “From Images To Results: Can Photogrammetry Be Fully Automated?” on September 10, 2026. David Alamillo joins as guest, and Michael O’Sullivan hosts. The session will examine how far end-to-end automation can extend in photogrammetric processing. Topics tie directly to the new interactive mode and its role in unattended pipelines. Registration is available through the SimActive webinar page.
