General / Re: RTK Positioning accuracy with Mavic 3E

« Last post by dpitman on April 10, 2024, 11:48:50 PM »

A little tip, there is such a function in many web browsers, which is called translator  

Good tip. If you don't read the forum default language you could use it.

As a bonus,you might get participation from a lot more users that have experience with the issue you are having.

Cheers!

Python and Java API / Re: Disabling read-only lock when quitting Metashape?

« Last post by Wizyza on April 10, 2024, 09:58:12 PM »

Hi Alexey,

I also want to add that when I run my script from within the GUI and Metashape.app.quit() executes from within the GUI, terminating the application, when I reload the project, I do not get the message.

This seems to only happen when Metashape.app.quit() is executed through the CLI.

Python and Java API / Re: Script to Copy Region from One Project to Other Projects

« Last post by matt07lx on April 10, 2024, 09:51:08 PM »

Hi Paul,

Thanks again - I appreciate your ideas. Unfortunately, while that resolved the issue with the size, it didn't change the final result. There was clearly something wrong with the chunk transform matrix, but I couldn't figure it out. In the end, I found this script for copying the region from one chunk to another: https://github.com/agisoft-llc/metashape-scripts/blob/master/src/copy_bounding_box_dialog.py. I was able to adapt it to my needs. It takes a different approach and doesn't require converting the coordinates at all.

Python and Java API / Re: Apply patch on multiple shapes

« Last post by Paulo on April 10, 2024, 08:48:31 PM »

lorenzoo,

you must define s as your selected shape as:

Code: [Select]

s = [s for s in chunk,shapes if s.selected][0]
s.geometry.coordinates[0]

General / Re: export orthophotos/convert images

« Last post by Alexey Pasumansky on April 10, 2024, 07:22:27 PM »

Hello Raphael,

Export orthophotos feature allows to save individually orthorectified images (images projected on to the mesh/DEM surface) on disk, whereas Convert Images option allows to save undistorted (or distorted images) using the parameters from the Camera Calibration dialog.

Export orthophotos option may give you different distribution of the pixel color values, if the surface used for the orthomosaic generation has holes in it - in this case some parts of the original image could not be projected and will not appear on the orthorectified image.

Feature Requests / Re: AprilTag

« Last post by Wizyza on April 10, 2024, 07:07:34 PM »

I know I'm resurrecting a old thread.

But, l also would like to see AprilTag support implemented in Metashape.

Hi Alexey,

Sorry, I didn't realize you responded.

Just in case I wasn't clear in my initial post, I wrote a script to handle my processing from the CLI. If I then open the project file in the GUI, I get the read-only mode message box. It seems that using Metashape.app.quit() at the end of my script does not properly close the project.

Closing the project through the GUI, by clicking on the 'X', does not produce this issue.

I am currently running version 2.1.1.17821 on Windows 11 23H2.

Bug Reports / Re: After "Build Tiled Model" Texture resolution is substantially degraded.

« Last post by Alexey Pasumansky on April 10, 2024, 04:32:38 PM »

Hello Mr Miyagi,

Thank you for sharing the test data.


The issue seem to be related to the large coordinates in the OBJ file that are not properly treated during texture transfer procedure.

The workaround that you can use is the following:
- create new empty chunk in the project,
- execute the following single line in Metashape Console pane:

Code: [Select]

Metashape.app.document.chunk.transform.matrix=Metashape.app.document.chunk.transform.matrix- use Import Model option with the following shift options (X = -46742, Y = -152582, Z = 0),
- build tiled model with texture transfer option enabled. You may also consider using 512 tiles and high face count to improve the level of detail of the tiled model geometry

Let me know, if it works properly and you get good texture of the tiled model.

Meanwhile we will try to fix the internal cause the reason of the problem.

Yes.  It looks like that one option will work.
