Hello,
Does anyone have a workflow recommendation for combining photographs with point cloud data? I'm trying to make a reconstruction of a room using photos to capture the details and the point cloud will help with the plain white walls. I am using a basic DSLR camera and a FARO Focus scanner. Does everything need to be geo-referenced for me to be able to combine the data? If so, is there a link where I can learn how to do that? Right now, after I do the aerotriangulation on the photos and then import the scans as .e57 files, the program no longer gives me the option to create a reconstruction or to run another aerotriangulation using the scans as a reference.
Start with the .e57 and use that as your geometry. Then attach your images to it using key points that you can define both within the scan and images.
Once I start with the .e57, the option to attach images is removed. There also does not seem to be an option to similar points between the scan and images.
