Quick and dirty mosaicking - possible?

[rossnixon]

Is it possible to create a 'quick & dirty' mosaic from hundreds of well-overlapped aerial images (GPS data is in images)?
The land is mostly quite flat.
Don't need georeferenced output.
Don't need any height info.

Thanks.

Hello rossnixon,

First way: align cameras, build DEM based on sparse cloud, build orthomosaic in desired resolution.

Second way: assuming you have exterior orientation data for the cameras (both location coordinates and orientation angles), use Python scripting to apply the cameras according to the measured exterior orientation data, generate a very simple mesh or import some rough DEM (for example, EGM96 geoid), generate orthomosaic.
