Hello all,
I am looking for some help or a little clarification on how masking works. I have a series of RGB imagery I collected with my UAS over a forested area, all nadir. For each image, I generated a mask blocking out the gaps and non-vegetated areas. I'm trying to take advantage of the higher resolution and clarity of the original imagery. I uploaded the mask for each image and I can see them.
Now my usual process is Align photos --> Dense cloud --> Dem --> Orthomosaic. I am choosing not to apply the mask during the Align Photos stage because I need as many tie points as I can get since the area is 99% forest cover and unique features are hard to come by. When I run the usual process though, I'm not getting any masked areas in my final orthomosaic. Should I be during off the hole filling options here? The Dem also seems to be complete as well, no mask.
Thanks for the help,
Heather
