Set bounding box from shapefile

[juacarri]

Hi! Is it possible to set a bounding box from the maximum and minimum coordinates of a shapefile? I want to obtain a dense cloud of a small area of my project

[juacarri]

I have created a small script to set the bounding box (bbox) of Metashape from the bounding boxes of a shapefile (.SHP).

This script is useful for users that have performed the alignment of a large area and want to continue the processing (dense point cloud, mesh, etc.) of a smaller area delimited by the boundaries of a SHP file.

I attached the script to this post in case it is useful to anyone.

Thanks juacarri

I received this error message when I ran the script:

142, in _import
2023-02-20 12:14:02     return original_import(name, *args, **kwargs)
2023-02-20 12:14:02 ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'fiona'

This thread has a script to crop the tie point cloud based on the single selected polygonal shape.
