Dense cloud "missing" after split in chunks python script
« on: April 17, 2018, 07:41:37 AM »
I have a largeish project (16k photos). Ran alignment, placed GCPs, all is well. When it came time for dense cloud building, I used the split in chunks python script, and broke the model into 8 chunks with 10% overlap. Built at medium, with mesh build option checked, and merge option checked. The script finishes without errors, but both the mesh and dense cloud seem to be missing from the model after it is complete. I can find the .ply for the mesh, and the OC3 (13Gb) for the dense cloud - so it is as if they've been created, but they're not in the model. Eventually I need to build an orthophoto and an elevation grid with points every 20 meters for basic topographic contours.

I have no idea if I am just missing something, or what. 128 gigs of memory, plenty of disk space ...

here's the final output from the window. Any ideas?

answered my own question - I was on chunk 1, and not the merged chunk in the workspace tab if anyone else ever has this problem. I attribute it to staying up too late!
