Approaches to generating photogrammetry data are provided. In some implementations, a capture device captures a sequence of images of a physical environment while device poses of the capture device are tracked as the capture device moves around the physical environment. For each of image of images in the sequence of images, a corresponding device pose is stored as metadata of the image. Using photogrammetry, a three-dimensional (3D) model of the physical environment is generated from the images, where the photogrammetry uses for each image of the images, the corresponding device pose from the metadata of the image to generate the 3D model. In further respects, a user feedback loop can be used to direct a user to move the capture device to particular device poses for the capture of the images. Further camera properties used to capture an image may be stored in its metadata and used by the photogrammetry.
