Visibility-consistent mesh generation

[Twister]

Hi,

is it possible to include visibility-consistent mesh generation in a python script?
(I use PhotoScan Professional 1.4.2)

Thanks a lot

Hello Twister,


You need to build depth maps at first and then use DepthMapsData as a source for the mesh reconstruction function the quality parameter should correspond for both functions and filtering option for the depth maps should be set to Mild:

Code: [Select]

chunk.buildDepthMaps(quality = PhotoScan.HighQuality, filter = PhotoScan.FilterMode.MildFiltering, reuse_depth = True)
chunk.buildModel(surface = PhotoScan.Arbitrary, source = PhotoScan.DepthMapsData, quality = PhotoScan.HighQuality, reuse_depth = True, keep_depth = True)

Thank you, Alexey, that works.

P.S. Visibility-consistent mesh generation is great with insects:

Thanks for sharing the paper.

Hello Twister,

I think you can also put the link to your article to the thread related to the new meshing method as an example of new method and comparison with the old (default) method for complex and thin surfaces:
