Feature Requests / GCP vs Check Point Icon

« on: October 18, 2019, 01:05:55 AM »

Any chance a different color of icon could be used to differentiate between a GCP and a Checkpoint? For big projects, when trying to set which ones to constrain as a GCP  would be nice to see a color (or different icon) between the two.

Trying to manually look thru the list of which are which is a bit awkward.

Just wanted to bump this request up again. Would be extremely helpful.

Feature Requests / Re: Limit box for viewing / classification

« on: December 20, 2018, 10:56:55 PM »

I have been using that tool, which is good, but the problem is that you have to keep resetting the filter when you need to select a new area of points. It works (and a good first step), but kind of a pain with larger edits.

Ideally a limit box (similar to many other point cloud tools), pretty much like region box in Agisoft, but only that only controls the current view of points. So you can dynamically edit the limit box as needed (move, resize, etc.), instead of selecting a new area, filter by selection, the reset, and keep doing over again.

It would be great to have the ability to set a limit box in the 3D view to better work with the dense cloud. It can be hard to properly select / view points that you need to clean, classify, etc. in the view as all the points are visible.

But with a limit box that you can resize move, etc. on the fly to clip the dense cloud would be ideal. Then it would allow for easier point selection of noisy points, or when manually classifying trees, buildings, etc.

+1 for this as well. Bing, Google, Mapbox, it really doesn't matter. Just general context imagery would be great.

+1 from here as well. We tend to convert exported tiffs to ECW in Globalmapper for better handling of data in CAD, GIS, etc. Directly in Agisoft would be awesome.

Hi Alexey, any update or feedback on this??

I am still having the same issues with this dataset and others.

Hi Alexey,

I have attached the log files for both my desktop and laptop, and there was a big difference between the two.

Desktop - 10min, 46 seconds Matching Time, 43 minutes, 6 seconds alignment time
Laptop - 17min, 22 seconds matching time, 14 minutes, 28 seconds alignment time

Same processing parameters of 136 images, high accuracy with reference preselection, key point limit 40,000 and tie point limit of 15,000.

Yes, hyperthreading is enabled on both machines and utilizing all cores/threads to 100 percent.

Thanks for the comments guys, but I have done a number of checks on my desktop and all things seem to spec out fine on it. I ran a benchmarking program I found, and the dual CPU benchmarks over twice the rating of my laptop, so it seems to be fine as well. I also had my IT guys swap out my old RAM (64GB), but it operates the same as my 128GB.

I was wondering about Anti-Virus, etc., but it is weird to me that the Alignment step is the only process that is slower than my laptop, and just the one step of the Alignment Time. In looking at the CPU usage during this step it is running 100 percent of all cores as well.

Just to check, I also just reran an old project from a year ago that was done on the same desktop, and I am now seeing that same much slower alignment time as well. See the attached screenshot. The matching time is virtually identical, but the old "Alignment Time" was 3 minutes and 7 seconds, while the new was 26 minutes 21 seconds.

I am not sure if I just have some incompatibility on my desktop right now, but still see it as odd that it is only that one step that it is having a serious issue with.

I have an issue with our main processing workstation right now, with much slower performance of it to a laptop of mine, but only for certain processes in Agisoft. The attached image outlines the two areas, with the Alignment time being much slower on my desktop than my laptop.

The desktop is a dual Xeon E5-2650 V2 with a Quadro K5200 and 128GB of RAM, whereas my laptop has in I7-3740QM with a Quadro K4000M with 32GB of RAM. Both running Windows 7 Enterprise.

Every other process is much faster on my desktop, except for the Alignment Time. The matching time is faster, but not the alignment.

I am not sure why this would be so much different, and I have also played with all the OpenCL settings as well.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Hi Alexey,

Just wondering if you have found anything out further on this? I have talked to Micasense and they indicated these are their formats of imagery. Also, I did try reading into PIX4D to check, and it reads them correctly from what it seems (as it accounts for the lens offsets).

Hopefully you know something further.

Hi Alexey,

I assume they are originals, as I downloaded them from the Micasense website under this link:

http://www.micasense.com/rededge/samples.html

I have an email into them as well to see if this is the standard format.

Hi Alexey,

Yes, i am using 1.2.4 professional. I just sent the images to the support email.

Thanks.

I had a similar question on this as well. We just purchased this sensor, but I can't seem to get Agisoft to bring up the option to "Create multispectral camera from files as bands".

I have a sample dataset (since i don't have the camera yet), and there are 5 images with the same name, but with spectral band as the suffix in tiff format (ie. img_0554_480.tif, img_0554_560.tif,...). When I add photos as in the help for this, I assume there should be the option to "create multispectral cameras from files as bands" but this never comes up. It just loads the images as 5 separate images.

Am i missing something??
