General / Re: Ground Control pane - Error data in red

« on: June 03, 2014, 01:32:49 PM »

Hello,

It has the meaning of highest error (coordinate, angle and reprojection), but you shouldn't pay much attention to it, since in the next update there will not be any red highlights in the Ground Control pane.

General / Re: IMPORT dense point cloud

« on: June 03, 2014, 12:17:21 PM »

Hello MINE,

Dense cloud import currently is not supported.

Importing point cloud file using mesh option will not produce any good results, because PhotoScan will try to use points as mesh vertices, but there are not any faces.

Hello LMG,

Yes it's possible, but would it be reasonable, since the camera orientation angles are not utilized during processing?

Python and Java API / Re: Ground control total error value

« on: June 03, 2014, 08:54:42 AM »

Hello Arthur,

Currently it is not accessible directly, to get this value it is necessary to calculate individual errors at first as a difference between source values and estimated by PhotoScan.

Hello Alexander,

We've received the data and now are investigating the problem.

Face and Body Scanning / Re: moving mesh inside Agisoft PhotoScan Pro

« on: June 02, 2014, 06:01:21 PM »

Hello Claude,

And are these scans referenced and scaled in any coordinate system? In principle it is possible to apply translation vector to the whole scene, but actually it is necessary to know where's "up" and what are the units in the current model scene (or how to convert models' units to cm).

Hello Claude,

If you have the fixed camera rig and the camera labels are the same across every project. You can load all the projects into the single PhotoScan window as chunks, using Append command in File menu and use Camera based chunk alignment.

Feature Requests / Re: Photoscan Professional "Artist" Edition

« on: June 02, 2014, 05:14:23 PM »

Hello all,

It seems that too little difference has left between proposed Artist and current Professional editions for quite a huge gap in price. So currently, at least for the nearest future, we do not see the possibility for releasing the new edition.
However, the functionality of Standard edition may be extended by few minor features.

Face and Body Scanning / Re: moving mesh inside Agisoft PhotoScan Pro

Hello Claude,

Do you wish to move mesh relatively to camera positions? Or to import mesh from external file and move it relatively to the model generated in active chunk?

General / Re: What causes "Can't build dense cloud"?

« on: June 01, 2014, 01:30:45 PM »

Hello photohokie,

The most likely reasons of "Can't build dense cloud" problem are the following:

- insuffient number of matching points inside the bounding box between every pair of images,
- presence of camera shooting position in the field of view of other cameras,
- camera calibration issues.

Maybe you can provide a screenshot of the sparse cloud and camera positions?

General / Re: Texturing problem/question

« on: June 01, 2014, 11:08:04 AM »

Hello William,

Can you please specify the reconstruction settings used for mesh generation? Please also check that you have been using version 1.0.4 for model reconstruction (in older version there was the problem causing black texture generation for high-poly models: http://www.agisoft.ru/forum/index.php?topic=1883).

Black texture may be a result of too many isolated faces or noise of the surface in case of disabled interpolation.

General / Re: Texturing problem/question

« on: June 01, 2014, 12:28:01 AM »

Hello William,

Actually, orthophoto mapping mode means, that you'll get texture covering only 2D surface, so all the vertical areas will not be properly textured.
In case you'll need to generate texture for all the surfaces, you need to use Generic mode.

Python and Java API / Re: Python scripts fails on launch but works in console?

Hello nickponline,

Processing script should be started by the operator.

Python and Java API / Re: Why is exported DEM so much smaller than OrthoMosaic?

« on: May 31, 2014, 01:53:53 PM »

Hello nickponline,

You can specify the same resolution using the corresponding argument. However, the effective resolution of DEM depends on the reconstruction quality used. While for orthophoto it is usually close to original resolution of photos.

Hello Frank,

Could you please specify the export parameters you wish to use for the orthophoto/DEM export? And how should be the exported data organized?
