Sharing my Python Script collection via Github

[joacampb]

Hello!

I wanted to share my python script collection via github. I learned a lot from this forum and couldn't of created the scripts without the help I got here. I did my best to include the links to the forum in each relevant script, but I'm new to coding so let me know if I should cite them differently. Scripts can be found here:

I work in cultural heritage so that is the focus of my workflow. Hope these help anyone else like me that is just starting out!

What the scripts cover:

1. Automate Alignment/Image Matching
2. Automate Depthmap/Dense cloud
3. Automate locating markers as well as marker error optimization to remove markers with error values over defined threshold  - as well as - remove markers with projections under a specific threshold (my favorite)
4. Automate point cloud filtering and point cloud error optimization to a defined threshold ( my other favorite )
5. Automate generating Mesh along with derivative meshes at set decimated face values for full resolution, rendering, 3D printing, and web use.
6. Automate generating Textures, including Diffuse, Normal Maps, and Ambient Occlusion maps for each mesh in chunk
7. Automate generating Othromosaic renderings.
8. Automate output of all generated models and texture files.
