Hello everyone,
have you tried RealityCapture? https://www.capturingreality.com/Home

RealityCapture is a state-of-the-art photogrammetry software which automatically extracts beautiful and accurate 3D models from images, laser-scans and other inputs.
It is able to process laser-scans and scales linearly, which especially makes it unique to anything else. This software is the only one to mix laser-scans and photographs easily without seams at astounding speed. The algorithms are out-of-core so you can reconstruct unlimited size models on limited hardware (a PC with just 8GB RAM). The models are complete and without seams. Of course, geo-referencing using ground control points, flight logs, gps in exif go without saying. There are also more advantages like camera-rigs support, arbitrary ortho-projections, nice and intuitive UI etc.

Have a closer look at what RealityCapture is capable of: Reconstruction of a castle - interior, exterior, all in one model. 28 975 images of 36 or 80 Mpx resolution. 118 terrestrial laser-scans (Leica). It all has been processed on a single PC. The model consists of 1 500 000 000 (1.5B) triangles: https://youtu.be/E7LLELllus4.

Here you can see the advantages of automatic mixing images and laser-scans: https://youtu.be/1-4RsCIuKCw.

You can download a test dataset here: ttp://rcdata.capturingreality.com/testset1.zip.

The software also allows you to filter, simplify, texture, export model. You can also export -> post-process (retopologize, clean) -> import -> texture your models...
