MapAnything is an open-source research framework for universal metric 3D reconstruction. At its core is a simple, end-to-end trained transformer model that directly regresses the factored metric 3D geometry of a scene given various types of inputs (images, calibration, poses, or depth). A single feed-forward model supports over 12 different 3D reconstruction tasks including multi-image sfm, multi-view stereo, monocular metric depth estimation, registration, depth completion and more.
The framework provides the complete stack—data processing, training, inference, and profiling—with a modular design that allows different 3D reconstruction models (VGGT, DUSt3R, MASt3R, MUSt3R, Pi3-X, and more) to be used interchangeably through a unified interface.

# Access results for each view - Complete list of metric outputs
# Outputs are the same as above (image-only input case), but with additional inputs usedInput requirements for model.infer:
img: RGB images normalized according todata_norm_typedata_norm_type: Normalization type (must match model's encoder requirements)
Optional geometric inputs supported by model.infer:
intrinsicsORray_directions: Camera calibration (cannot provide both since they are redundant)depth_z: Z-depth maps (requires calibration info)camera_poses: OpenCV (+X - Right, +Y - Down, +Z - Forward) cam2world poses as 4×4 matrices or (quaternions, translations)is_metric_scale: Whether inputs are in metric scale
Key constraints for model.infer:
- If
depth_zis provided, must also provideintrinsicsorray_directions - If any view has
camera_poses, the first view (reference) must also have them - Cannot provide both
intrinsicsandray_directionssimultaneously (they are redundant)
The above constraints are enforced in the inference API. However, if desired, the underlying model.forward can support any arbitrary combination of inputs (a total of 64 configurations; without counting per view flexibility).
The MapAnything codebase is modular — different 3D reconstruction models can be used interchangeably through a unified model factory interface. All model wrappers produce outputs in a unified format following MapAnything conventions (pts3d, pts3d_cam, ray_directions, depth_along_ray, cam_trans, cam_quats, conf, etc.). This enables fair comparison, benchmarking, and easy experimentation across methods.

from mapanything.models import init_model_from_config
# Initialize model by name - handles Hydra config composition automatically
# Options are based on configs available in configs/model
# The model is returned on the specified device
model = init_model_from_config("vggt", device="cuda")
# Other examples:
# model = init_model_from_config("pi3x", device="cuda")
# model = init_model_from_config("da3_nested", device="cuda")

# Initialize external model
# Requires passing in additional model config arguments as kwargs
# model = model_factory("model_name", **model_config_kwargs)
model = model_factory("vggt", name="vggt", torch_hub_force_reload=False)
model = model.to("cuda")All model wrappers follow the same forward() interface. The model expects a list of view dictionaries as input and returns a list of prediction dictionaries:
import torch
from mapanything.utils.image import load_images
# Load and preprocess images from a folder
# This handles resizing and normalization based on model requirements
views = load_images(
folder_or_list="path/to/images", # Folder path or list of image paths
resolution_set=518, # Model-specific resolution (see table above)
norm_type="dinov2", # Model-specific normalization (see table above)
patch_size=14,
)
# Run inference
model.eval()
with torch.no_grad():
with torch.autocast("cuda"):
predictions = model(views)
# predictions is a list of dicts, one per input view
# See the Unified Output Format section below for more detailsEach input view dictionary must contain at minimum an img tensor of shape (B, 3, H, W) with the appropriate normalization applied. The load_images utility handles this preprocessing automatically. For more advanced inference patterns including loss computation and device handling, see the loss_of_one_batch_multi_view function in mapanything/utils/inference.py.
All model wrappers produce outputs in a consistent format:
| Output Key | Description |
|---|---|
pts3d |
3D points in world coordinates |
pts3d_cam |
3D points in camera coordinates |
ray_directions |
Ray directions in camera frame |
depth_along_ray |
Depth along ray |
cam_trans |
Camera translation (cam2world) |
cam_quats |
Camera quaternion (cam2world) |
conf |
Per-pixel confidence scores |
This unified output format allows:
- Fair comparison between methods
- Easy swapping of models for experimentation
- Consistent downstream processing pipelines
Different models have different input requirements:

Profile GPU memory usage and inference speed of MapAnything across different view counts. The profiling script supports comparison with external models and outputs both JSON results and visualizations.
MapAnything achieves the best speed and memory profile compared to existing methods, enabling efficient inference across a wide range of view counts.

| Peak GPU Memory vs Number of Views | Inference Speed vs Number of Views |
Note on Memory Efficient Mode: MapAnything (Mem Efficient) in the plots refers to using memory_efficient_inference=True with mini batch size 1 in the .infer() and .forward() calls. This mode trades off speed for reduced memory consumption, enabling inference on a larger number of views (up to 2000 views on 140 GB). As seen in the plots, the speed trade off is negligible.

Both models support the same API and functionality. The only difference is the training data composition and resulting license terms. Please see our paper for detailed information about the specific datasets used in each model variant.
The MapAnything training/benchmarking framework expects trained checkpoints in a specific format with a model key. The HuggingFace checkpoints can be easily converted to the expected format using:
# Convert default CC-BY-NC model
python scripts/convert_hf_to_benchmark_checkpoint.py \
--output_path checkpoints/facebook_map-anything.pth
# Convert Apache 2.0 model for commercial use
python scripts/convert_hf_to_benchmark_checkpoint.py \
--apache \

🌍 UniCeption is a library which contains modular, config-swappable components for assembling end-to-end networks.
🌍 WAI is a unified data format for all things 3D, 4D & Spatial AI. It enables easy, scalable and reproducible data processing.
We strongly encourage the community to build on top of the tools and submit PRs! This also enables us to release stronger models (both apache and research use) as the community adds more datasets to WAI and builds on top of UniCeption/MapAnything.
Check out our related work which also use UniCeption & WAI:

🚀 FlowR: Flowing from Sparse to Dense 3D Reconstructions
We thank the following projects for their open-source code: DUSt3R, MASt3R, RayDiffusion, MoGe, VGGSfM, VGGT, MaRePo, and DINOv2.
