Photoscan--:ArcScene workflow for real-world coordinates

[bevenro]

Hi-

I know there have been tons of posts on this but somehow I?m still confused.  I have a nice textured model in Photoscan, and have set 8 markers and set coordinates according to our total station m easurements.  I can?t for the life of me figure out how to get this model--and its proper coordinate system--into ArcScene.  I?ve tried exporting as .dae and .wml--the models import ok but I don?t know how to position it. 

I know this is a basic question but please help--I?ve been stuck for days!

Many thanks.

Steve

Here is a list of all suported formats.

However, ArcGIS is not very well suited for viewing 3D-models (in my experience). Try to decimate the model as much as possible and reduce texture to as little as possible.

Thanks, KJellis.

Thing is there is an existing GIS that's been in development for several years (the whole thing is in ArcGIS--and they're just starting to get into 3D) so I wanted to help them add some photorealism to what they're doing.

But I can't seem to figure out how to get the coordinates that I assigned to the markers in Photoscan into ArcScene--I think I'm missing something obvious but haven't been able to get it.
