Marker pixel location from a single image without alignment

[pts_and_clouds]

I have a single image (actually a Metashape Orthophoto) which has some markers that I can run marker detection on.  All I want are the pixel coordinates of these markers, but I cannot use the markers.projections approach because there is no alignment to speak of here and projections returns None.

I tried to export the markers to an XML file (below) and sure enough, I can see the locations of two markers in pixel coordinates towards the end of the file.  How do I recover these using the Python API? 

Thank you.

Hello,

given your marker m did you try this:

Code: [Select]

for camera in m.projections.keys():
    print(camera.label,m.projections[camera].coord.x,m.projections[camera].coord.y)

Thanks, that worked!

I thought I had tried this before, but I guess I didn't do it right.

@Paulo,


What I want to do ultimately is to read the coordinates of each marker in each image and divide them by 2, but it looks like marker coordinates are not changeable.  The following commands produce no change in the coordinates:

Code: [Select]

m.projections[cam].coord.x /= 2.0
m.projections[cam].coord.y /= 2.0

Do you know of any workaround to this?

[Paulo]

Maybe following could work:

Code: [Select]

new_coord = m.projections[cam].coord / 2
m.projections[cam].coord = new_coord

Worked again, thanks!
