Problem:
“I have data to be processed with ContextCapture Desktop or ContextCapture Center, but I don’t have access to a powerful computer.”
Solution:
The data can be processed from home/remote location using ContextCapture Cloud Processing service. This solution only requires a simple machine with ContextCapture Cloud Processing Console installed on it and an internet connection.
Requirements:
License:
ContextCapture Cloud Processing service is a component of Reality Modeling Cloud Services (RMCS). RMCS requires a specific subscription supported by a CSS (Cloud Service Subscription) contract. Please contact your account manager or sales representative for more information.
A complementary 30-day trial is accessible to all Bentley users. Details of the trial terms and conditions can be found here: https://communities.bentley.com/products/3d_imaging_and_point_cloud_software/w/wiki/43468/reality-modeling-cloud-services-30-day-trial
Software:
To trigger processing in the cloud, ContextCapture Cloud Processing Console is necessary to setup your projects. This is a desktop application that allows you to import your photos/point cloud, survey points, and other metadata.
ContextCapture Cloud Processing Console is available from the software download portal or directly from Bentley store here:Download ContextCapture Cloud Processing Console
ContextCapture Cloud Processing Console is a FREE product that doesn’t requires any entitlement to be used and doesn’t trigger license cost when opened. However, submitting processing in the cloud using ContextCapture Cloud Processing Console requires the RMCS subscription and usage is billed.
ContextCapture Cloud Processing Service can also be triggered by ContextCapture Mobile App (can be downloaded from the Play Store and Apple Store). The application is free but, like CC cloud processing Console, a RMCS subscription is required to submit processing.
