Help me understand and use these terrestrial calibration values
« on: January 18, 2020, 11:11:18 PM »
Attached here are some screen shots from a terrestrial calibration certificate for the camera that captured images I'm using in Metashape.

Can someone help me translate the relevant parameters into a calibration file that metashape can read (I'm guessing USGS format since some of those values are already in the certificate)?

Thank you

Paulo

I would try importing following file specifying that it is USGS camera calibration format...

Thank you for your effort on this Paul, I'll definitely give this a shot. Would you suggest fixing the values here, at least at first, and letting the "0" values be calculated by metashape?

Yes i would let Metashape estimate camera parameters )no fixing) as the auto calibration responds to actual foto conditions...
