General / Re: Genrate report in batch process

Hello FHofer,
If the chunk labels are different in your project, you can use {chunklabel} macros in the path field, for example:

Code: [Select]

D:/projects/data/report_{chunklabel}.pdf

Thank you very much!

General / Genrate report in batch process

« on: September 18, 2018, 10:20:35 AM »

Hello,
I have the following issue:
When trying to generate reports for all the chunks in a file via batch process, I can only enter path, title and description once.
Thus, only one .pdf is created and overwritten for each chunk resulting in a report for the last chunk if the batch process isn't cancelled.
Is there a way around this problem? I need to generate reports for numerous chunks and would like to not have to do it manually.

Thanks in advance,
FHofer

General / Significant differences in point-numbers of the same basic material

« on: August 10, 2018, 10:45:58 AM »

Hello,

let me give a short summary of our situation. We are using frames extracted from videos to reconstruct areas that are often poorly lit. Thus, we have come to anticipate the generated results differentiating from “normal” expectations. As a countermeasure, we usually run 4 to 12 generating processes for each set of video frames in order to get an overview on what results are good/bad and what we can expect on average.

This is where my problem comes in. Yesterday, I processed multiple sets of frames (each four times). The spare point cloud numbers of a specific one where 29,165, 30,080, 11,415 and 30,120 points (with the third result clearly being one of the reasons why we process the frame sets multiple times).

Today, I repeated the process another five times, but with no other frame sets being processed. The resulting sparse point cloud numbers were 24,100, 23,763, 18,096, 23,482 and 11,021 points. The same parameters where used, the only difference being that the four repetitions yesterday where processed along with multiple others in a batch process, while the five repetitions today where processed in a batch process of their own.
All parameters of the alignment and generating processes are set to the highest levels, except the accuracy of the “align photos”-process in order to avoid manipulation of the frames through upscaling.

Is there an explanation for this variation of the numbers of the sparse point cloud points?

Thanks in advance,
