&lt;/tr&gt;
&lt;/tbody&gt;
&lt;/table&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Problem Description&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"&gt;When you import your photos, camera parameters, and GCP from a XLS or XML file, the photos can sometimes be badly oriented&lt;/span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-02-18/Camera-View.png"&gt;&lt;img width="905" height="633" style="width:723px;height:561px;" src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-02-18/Camera-View.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;On the example above, the cameras are looking upward instead of looking down at the ground control points.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;Steps to Resolve&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"&gt;This problem comes from the &lt;i&gt;CameraOrientation&lt;/i&gt; parameter contained in your Block-file&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:times new roman,times;font-size:inherit;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"&gt;&lt;a href="/cfs-file/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-02-18/upsidedown-model.png"&gt;&lt;img width="885" height="157" style="width:801px;height:130px;" src="/resized-image/__size/940x0/__key/communityserver-wikis-components-files/00-00-00-02-18/upsidedown-model.png" alt=" " /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"&gt;To fix this problem the value for this parameter must be changed considering the error you observed after a first import&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:medium;"&gt;In the example, the corrected parameter value would be XRightYUp.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;
&lt;div style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:medium;"&gt;After modifying these values in the XLS file, re-import the block and it should work.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;h1&gt;&lt;/h1&gt;

&lt;h1&gt;Problem Description&lt;/h1&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Times New Roman"&gt;When you import your photos, camera parameters, and GCP from a XLS or XML file, the photos can sometimes be badly oriented&lt;/font&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;

&lt;li&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;font size="3" face="Times New Roman"&gt;In the example, the corrected parameter value would be XRightYUp&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;
&lt;div style="margin:0cm 0cm 10pt;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;font face="Times New Roman"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;After modifying these values in the XLS file, re-import the block and it should work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;
