Remove vegetation from orthomosaic

[cristianoab]

Hi everyone,

I have this exact problem: https://community.pix4d.com/t/remove-vegetation-from-orthomosaic/5770

Is there a solution for photoscan/metashape?

Thank you,
Cristiano

PS: I have tried to classify dense cloud and then build DEM without trees and then build the ortho based on the DEM

Hello cristianoab,

You can try to reduce the height of the bounding box before the orthomosaic generation so that it doesn't include the treetops.

Classification wouldn't help, as the images (containing the trees) will be projected on the ground surface, so you wouldn't get the desired effect.
