How this list is ordered. Specifiction scores each tool on how fully its maker documents it, whether its prices are published, where the research puts it, the platforms it runs on and whether it can be tried for free (how we rank). Makers can also buy a numbered place (how Specifiction is paid for).

Check free-plan or trial access, paid starting prices, image limits, coordinate systems, and whether the software exports orthomosaics or point clouds in the form you need.
