Why are you using such older version, please update its free.

Looks like you are processing this all wrong from the beginning. Can you send the dataset and the EPSG code you are using and your GEOid?

Again why not transcode the files?

Just transcode it or turn it into image sequence.

Why are you shooting fisheye directly up or is it just 2 files of only 1 half of your 360 shot.

You draw it on the ortho or DSM file in Metashape and export as what ever Vector file you like.

There is no correct order, do what ever you fits you best.

Did you place the Geoid file in the Geoid folder?

How does your raster transform look?

There are some issues with current ADA Nvidia drivers as well so maybe its that.

Draw a vector and follow the height file, you can then export this vector.

Change render type to hillshade in QGIS for your tiles.

If you want color as well you can add same tile on top with Singleband color.

Missing GEOid somewhere in the pipeline.

Thank you for the information.
I would like to highlight precisely these differences and whether this drone can be used for surveying tasks.

If your outcome is it can be used your testing is flawed, there is wayyy to much internal drifting to create data you can trust.

If you would shoot stop shoot for very frame, throw away the GPS data of the drone and rely only on GCP you would be able to get usable data, otherwise no.

You will never get anything usable from the mini. GPS accuracy of 10+ meters at least, rolling shutter, no time sync and massive internal drift. I don't understand why you are even using it for this comparison?

General / Re: Export Multiple Regions from a Point Cloud in a Single Export

« on: December 18, 2025, 06:34:09 AM »

In case you have different areas of interest, then your request can be completed using custom Python script that will export points based on polygonal shapes that have been pre-loaded (imported) to the project. If you need assistance with the latter option, providing that you can import or draw polygonal shapes in the project corresponding to the areas of interest, please let me know.

Hello Alexey,

can you send me a Python script to export a point cloud for the selected region (a polygonal shape imported to the project)?

I don't find that script on the Metashape Scripts GitHub repository.

No script needed for this as you can simply right click and select outer and inner for the shape and it will show up in your export box and only export the inside or outside of the selected shape/shapes.
