General / Re: best format to share laserscans

« on: January 17, 2024, 04:16:39 PM »

Hi Alex,

thank you for your feedback.
I tried different .e57 files and it seems to work.

though one more question: how can I still have the GCP in the model without re-input individually?

General / best format to share laserscans

« on: January 16, 2024, 12:31:33 PM »

Hi all,

quick and short post.
I use Metashape as my main software for processing and manipulating 3D photogrammetric survey.
usually we hire 3rd parties to perform laserscanning for us on location (site survey)

my question:
I need the hired people to send me the 3D laser scans after they geo-reference them and process them in a format that I can still import in Metashape to process further products such as DEMs and orthomosaic, etc, as needed.
what should I ask them to do to ensure the data I receive is usable in such matter?

please advice.

Hi again,

this was solved.
you were right about path length (character count) , I moved the file few levels up and opened it with no problems.

General / heritage documentation events

« on: January 06, 2023, 12:02:10 PM »

Hi all,

wish you a happy 2023.

since this is a community for documentation specialist, I was wondering if you can advise me on events world wide concerning heritage documentation that I can attend or join to develop my practice in this field and to share my expertise as well. maybe summer\spring schools, workshops, conferences, etc..

for example CIPA conference.
https://www.cipa2023florence.org/home

what have you attended before? what are you planning for 2023? what do you recommend I start with?

about me, I had been working in the field of Heritage documentation for the past 6 years, the latter 3 years my work was excessively involved into photogrammetry recording for archaeological sites. I was lucky enough to be across a team who is actively doing archaeological excavation projects, which I usually documented all in photogrammetry and produced ortho-rectified drawings for!
I want to grow into the profession more, there for I am asking you advice on how to shape my career path by acquiring new knowledge and develop my practice.

wishing to hear from you.

General / refrence large error

« on: July 19, 2022, 10:23:30 AM »

Hi all

I have a weird problem that occurs multiple times now. it i not related to the software technically though.
but I would love to hear your thoughts on this.

I am referencing an archaeology model, that have GCP on, I input all references based on a geo-refrence survey. I get large error in all of them.
I try to "show info" and individually make it right but that barely change anything.
there is nothing I can change in terms on reference locations and quantity, neither with the survey data.

how can I solve this?

Dears,

this is weird, but for some reasson the "exporting panorama" option is not available in the drop down menu for me, any thoughts?

I have doen all necessary steps:
1- importing photos
2- creat group, move photos into group
3- set group type to staion
4- align photos

now for exporting panorama, the option is not even available, am I doing something wrong?

General / how to make model for a virtual tour

« on: January 24, 2022, 01:53:14 PM »

Hi dears,

I have a corridor space showcasing paintings on both sides of wall, which i am requested to create a virtual tour of, where the used can hub in from one point o the other and see the whole thing!

can you please guide me which is best approach to do the job?

I am thinking to do multiple stations of 360 degree photos, but can I then process that in Agisoft all together? I know a project takes only one station at a time.

The other option is to do a regular recording and process a model, but I do not know how to make that into a 360 degree virtual tour thing from there.

eventually the tour is gonna be uploaded on google and shared via a link to be accessed.

Hi Alexy,

I didn't know such thing existed. I had been trying with Export\Import options all the time which didn't do the job.
Will do as advised.

thank you for always helping. much appreciated.
