DJI P1 smart oblique photo not calibrated

Anyone managed to fully process images obtained using DJI Zenmuse P1 and smart oblique?

Many oblique images (180 out of 400 images) are excluded from the component by error "This photo is not calibrated"

sample data can be obtained from the following link.

  • Hi John

    In the Aerotriangulation definition settings select the "Load preset  " button and go to C:\Program Files\Bentley\ContextCapture\Presets\AT to select and load the "Do not use pose metadata for SfM" preset file.. Run the aerotriangulation using this preset to resolve your issue.

  • I tried your suggestion and still excludes 180 images.

    Test1

    A. Positioning/georeferencing:
    - Adjustment constraints: photo positioning metadata
    - Final rigid registration: photo positioning metadata

    B. Main settings:
    - Key point density: Normal
    - Tags or QR Codes extraction: Disabled
    - Pair selection mode: Default
    - Component construction mode: OnePass
    - Blockwise color equalization: Enabled
    - Splats: Enabled

    C. Estimation policies:
    - Tie points: Compute
    - Position: Adjust
    - Rotation: Adjust
    - Photogroup estimation mode: MultiPass
    - Focal length: Adjust
    - Principal point: Adjust
    - Radial distortion: Adjust
    - Tangential distortion: Adjust
    - Aspect ratio: Keep
    - Skew: Keep
    - Estimation groups: PerPhotogroup
    - Using low level settings: Do not use pose metadata for SfM

  • Thank you. It seems that the position and rotation need to be in compute in order to work. Again thank you very much. I will assess the results if they are reliable.

  • Where  do you get the "Do not use pose metadata for SfM" preset file? I do not have it under presets, could you provide it?
