General / Manual entering of camera accuracy vs. marker accuracy

« on: January 17, 2023, 12:13:39 PM »

Dear Agisoft-Team,

what is the effect of the manual entering of the camera accuracy vs. marker accuracy?

I have a project where I want to use RTK-data from a drone (estimated precision 10cm) and combine it with RTK-marker (estimated precision 2cm). Does this have any effect on the precision of the final location? How well do my estimations for the precision need to be?

In one project the precision of the camera location was wrongly set to 2 meters. Does this mean I have to calculate the full dataset again?

Best regards,
Johannes

Camera Calibration / Filename extension "V" - What does it mean?

« on: November 21, 2022, 11:28:05 AM »

I know the typical filename extensions in metashape: NA = not aligned; NC not calibrated. But what does the extension "V" mean? They are images from the Mavic 3 Enterprise Advanced with a vignetting clearly visible on the corners of the image. Does it refer to this effect?

Python and Java API / Transfering 2D-image markers (x/y-pixel) to 3D-real-world-coordinates

Dear Agisoft-team,

My starting point is a georeferenced densecloud and orthomosaick calculated out of geotagged images.

Within the project I'd like to perform the following steps within a python script:

1. Import a text-file with 2D-marker (cameraname/x-Position in Pixel/Y-position in Pixel)
2. Place marker according to the list's position on a camera/image (--> marker will be projected within dense cloud and orthomosaic)
3. Export a list of 3D, real-world-coordinates of generated marker

Some additional questions:
- Is this generally possible? In most cases the marker will be placed in just one image and would conesequently be shown as a white flag ...
- Do you happen to know the relevant command lines for the image x/y attachment and the placing of the markers on the exact image position?

Thanks,
GL
