Get camera locations and image overlap

[Benjamim]

Hello everyone!

In the context of a project I need to get information about the image overlap, I would also need to know if inside of a shape the entire area is covered by images.

In the PDF report generated by Metashape, in the section "Survey Data" there is an image containing "Camera locations and image overlap.". Is there any way to obtain this information in runtime? It think that with this information I would be able to compute the outputs I need.

Many thanks!

Hello Benjamim,

Currently it is not possible to get this information directly from Metashape. As a workaround you can calculate overlap manually/externally basing on the image footprints that can be generated using footprints_to_shapes script.
