I am fine with rotation or other details changing, but the coords are not being respected. We have a metadata file that has locations for every image. The locations have been verified outside of CC. If we process a small area, it seems to work. The larger the area, the worse the results.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Orange is (ironically) ground truth and are the images that were unable to be used. Green is what we end up with.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img style="max-height:240px;max-width:320px;" src="/resized-image/__size/640x480/__key/communityserver-discussions-components-files/343228/pastedimage1676408639262v1.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This is from a run of approximately 10,000 images&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here are my AT settings:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A. Positioning/georeferencing:&lt;br /&gt;- Adjustment constraints: photo positioning metadata&lt;br /&gt;- Final rigid registration position: photo positioning metadata&lt;br /&gt;- Final rigid registration orientation: none&lt;br /&gt;- Final rigid registration scale: none&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;B. Main settings:&lt;br /&gt;- Key point density: Normal&lt;br /&gt;- Tags or QR Codes extraction: Disabled&lt;br /&gt;- Pair selection mode: Default&lt;br /&gt;- Color correction: blockwise&lt;br /&gt;- Splats: Enabled&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;C. Estimation policies:&lt;br /&gt;- Tie points: Compute&lt;br /&gt;- Position: Compute&lt;br /&gt;- Rotation: Compute&lt;br /&gt;- Pre-calibration stage: Enabled&lt;br /&gt;- Focal length: Adjust&lt;br /&gt;- Principal point: Adjust&lt;br /&gt;- Radial distortion: Adjust&lt;br /&gt;- Tangential distortion: Adjust&lt;br /&gt;- Aspect ratio: Keep&lt;br /&gt;- Skew: Keep&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Just wondering why I could be doing wrong. Thanks&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item><item><title>Ask A Question I</title><link>https://communities.bentley.com/achievements/460ac7df-7ccc-4c42-a204-9e05eef3be09</link><pubDate>Tue, 14 Feb 2023 01:29:47 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">6dad98f5-dbc9-4c4d-a9ba-e9da8dc6aa8e:2642d4c1-c2c4-4368-9fb5-d84431405656</guid><dc:creator /><description>Ask a question in a forum.</description></item></channel></rss>
