  • Any benefit to processing in phases (adding pictures)?

    Is there any benefit to processing one set of pictures then adding more pictures and processing again? does it keep the original main component and add to it or does it start over completely? I am asking because I am trying to get pictures from an XT2…
  • ContextCapture - Combining Photos and Point Clouds

    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…
  • Aerotriangulation image pose adjustment setting not working (Update 15)

    Hi, I have a set of images with accurate image pose acquired by RTK GPS. I imported the images and image position and it looks good. Then I ran Aerotriangulation with adjustment setting to hold image position and it fails to hold the image position. Any…
  • Why does my focal length change for the same camera in different photogroup?

    I'm using Sony A7R II with 28mm lens and I'm curious why my focal length change slightly? it's a prime lens and manufacturer spec says it's 28mm and the aero-triangulation optimized the focal length in the range of 27.13mm - 27.20mm for different photogroups…
  • Aerotriangulation fails inmediatly after submitting with one specific project

  • Aligning photo dataset to a LiDAR pointcloud help!

    I'm having trouble aligning a photo dataset to a LiDAR pointcloud that was taken at the same time. Is there any better guides (more detailed than the 3 min example on youtube) or detailed settings i should be using? (suspect its spatial coord issue…
  • [ContextCapture] disconnected photos

    Hello, help deal with the problem. After aerotriangulation, most of the photos were not determined. In the Acquisition Report writes that: disconnected photos - 60%. In the Surveys tab, writes that the photo is not calibrated. And this problem concerns…
  • Ripples and Bumps on Road in Aerial Model From ContextCapture

    We acquired high definition imagery along both sides of a roadway in order to produce a model. We were able to process the imagery with GCPs using several different settings. Each time we got the same result of a rippling or bumpy effect on the road surface…
  • Can I do Aerotriangulation of 20,000 images each 20MP on a single computer with i7-7700K, 16GB Ram, 6GB GTX 1060Graphic Card? How can I achieve this process even with multiple computers?

    I want to do aerotraingulation of 20,000 aerial images taken with sony a6000 Camera, 20MP camera. How to complete this process. Please suggest?
  • Poor Aerotriangulation results. Nadir dataset became circular arc shaped after aerotriangulation.

    I have 359 Geo-referenced images. These were taken from Drone with Nadir pose in straight line. All photos facing downwards. After aerotrigulation from context capture, those photos are aligned in a circular arc instead of straight path which is the actual…
  • Best practice to process large dataset ~100-150 Gigapixels.

    Hello Everyone, I am testing Context Capture for processing large number of UAV images. I currently have 90 Gigapixel and 150 Gigapixels size dataset. I want to process that in context capture. I have submitted all images(90 gigapixels) for aerotriangulation…
