The photo reconstruction functionality of ReCap is cloud based, which was a blocker for me, because I have a beefy graphics rig and want to script it into a pipeline.&lt;p&gt;I am curious how OpenSfM compares to VisualSfM and if they are related in any way.&lt;p&gt;Edit: The VisualSfM license is only open for non-commercial uses. OpenSfM is BSD licensed, so I can safely build my business on top of it.</text><parent_chain></parent_chain></comment><story><title>Denser 3D Point Clouds in OpenSfM</title><url>http://blog.mapillary.com/update/2016/10/31/denser-3d-point-clouds-in-opensfm.html</url></story>
