Title: Bug in "Export Ground Control data to file"
Post by: dcm39 on February 21, 2014, 06:37:03 PM

Hi,

There seems to be a bug in using the "export ground control data to file" tool in the ground control panel. I have run as follows:

- Import photos
- Import ground control data (the rough guess positions and orientations of cameras)
- Align photos
- Export ground control data (I want to export the newly estimated values.)

I chose the column based text format for output, then in the given dialog box I tick the box "save estimated values" and the "save orientation" boxes.

The resultant text file is NOT the new estimated values, but instead the original source camera locations... This doesn't seem right! I need the new positions, not the old ones.

I am running build 1812

Cheers

Dear dcm39,

In the exported file there should be both source and estimated values (both for positions and orientations), so please check all the columns in the output file.

Brilliant, thanks very much Alexey, you are quite right!

It might be useful however to add another tick box to the export dialog for the source values - so that you don't have to export them...

Thanks!
