Import georeferenced camera calibration and orientation into photoscan

[saedrna]

Hi everyone,

I have calibrated and bundle adjusted aerial oblique images and would like to import it into photoscan (fixed), then use it to build dense cloud and mesh.

As it is hard to aligh these images automatically due to large affine distortions, I have delelopped my own method to detect feature correspondences and bundle adjusted these images with georeferences.

I succeeded to make a import xml file to import it using tools->import->import cameras. However, even I import this file, it still need to align these images use photoscan internally. And after the alignment, the position and orientation of the images have changed.

I would like to ask if its possible to import this information and fix them. So in this way I don't have to use the align step, in order to process the following dense cloud and mesh.

Thanks.

unfortunatly you can not. 

The only thing you can do is in the settings under ground control set the camera accuracy to 0.

but I found that photoscan still likes to move the pictures.

It would be great to be able to move cameras manually and lock them down.

Could anyone from the Agisoft team confirm that it is not possible to fix imported exterior orientation parameters or otherwise describe how yaw, pitch and roll can be remained unchanged?

Thanks
