Build the model of the ground.
FlyPix AI is the no-code terrain modeling software that turns drone, aerial, and satellite imagery and LiDAR into clean DEM, DTM, and DSM products — bare earth, breaklines, contours, and hydro-flattened surfaces you can ship to engineering — covering thousands of square kilometres and saving up to 99.7% of manual modeling time.
Building one DEM tile by hand takes 997 seconds.
FlyPix AI takes 3.
A single survey can hold millions of returns that have to be filtered, classified, and gridded into bare earth before anyone can build on them. Manual modeling does not scale. FlyPix AI extracts the ground and constructs the elevation model across the whole capture at once, so your DTM keeps pace with every new flight.
Technicians filter points, tag ground, snap breaklines, and grid surfaces by hand, tile after tile. The work is slow, inconsistent between operators, and stale before the model reaches an engineer.
Up to 99.7% time saved. Clean, georeferenced DEM, DTM, and DSM products you can version over time and export straight into your GIS and engineering tools.
Raw captures, built into a usable elevation model — without the code.
Terrain modeling software turns imagery and LiDAR into a digital elevation model of the ground surface — DEM, DTM, and DSM products with breaklines, contours, and a clean bare-earth grid. FlyPix AI is a no-code platform that uses artificial intelligence to classify ground returns, remove vegetation and structures, snap breaklines, and grid a consistent surface from drone, aerial, and satellite imagery and LiDAR. You upload your captures, label a few examples of ground and off-ground, and the AI engine builds the model across the whole area of interest — turning hours of manual filtering and gridding into minutes of engineering-ready elevation.
Everything you need to build a terrain model
One platform to extract, construct, and export the surface of the ground across every capture you fly — from a single corridor to a national mosaic.
DEM, DTM & DSM generation
Produce bare-earth DTMs, first-surface DSMs, and gridded DEMs from the same survey at the resolution your project needs.
Bare-earth extraction
Classify ground returns and strip vegetation, buildings, and noise to leave a clean bare-earth surface, automatically.
Breaklines & contours
Detect ridges, ditches, and edges as breaklines and derive smooth, hydrologically sound contours at any interval.
TIN & gridded surfaces
Build triangulated irregular networks or regular grids and resample to the cell size your engineering workflow expects.
Hydro-flattening
Flatten lakes, level rivers, and enforce monotonic flow so water bodies sit correctly in the finished model.
No-code custom models
Train the ground classifier for your own landscape — dense canopy, arid scrub, urban clutter — by labelling a few examples.
From raw capture to terrain model in four steps
A no-code workflow built so surveyors, engineers, and planners — not just data scientists — can build production-grade elevation models.
Upload your captures
Bring drone, aerial, or satellite imagery and LiDAR point clouds in any common format — photogrammetric or laser.
Label ground & off-ground
Mark a few examples of bare earth versus vegetation and structures. A handful is enough for the engine to learn.
Let the AI build the model
FlyPix classifies the ground, snaps breaklines, flattens water, and grids a clean DTM, DSM, and DEM across the capture.
Refine & export
Review the surface on interactive maps, then export georeferenced DEM, DTM, contour, and TIN products to your tools.
One platform for every source of elevation
A terrain model is only as good as the data behind it. FlyPix AI ingests the full range of sources — build DSMs from drone and aerial imagery, extract bare earth from dense LiDAR, and scale to whole regions with satellite-derived elevation — and turns them into one consistent model in a single workspace.

Why teams choose FlyPix AI
The platform removes the bottlenecks that slow terrain modeling: manual point filtering, specialist headcount, rigid formats, and tooling that cannot keep pace with new surveys.
Models in seconds
Classify ground and grid a clean DTM across a full capture in seconds instead of hours of manual filtering — on every new survey.
A true no-code platform
Surveyors and engineers build and run AI ground models on their own captures — no programming, no data-science team.
Multi-source by design
Combine imagery-derived surfaces, LiDAR, and satellite elevation in one workspace and pick the right source for the model.
Scales to any area
Model a single building pad or grid an entire region at the resolution and cadence your projects demand.
