Running Photoscan on Linux Headless

[stulboro]

Hi All, my friendly computer science department is letting me use the Linux render machine. Can I make a project in Photoscan on another computer and just execute the job on Linux? There is no user interface on the Linux box as it is used for shared computation.

Off to reread the manual...

Hello Stu,

You can run the Python script from the terminal (in version 1.3 of PhotoScan Pro) to perform fully automated processing workflow.

Thanks, I am learning how to use Linux and looking to try this early next week. It will be great to run bigger jobs on.

Hey @stulboro, how did you make out with this? Any insights, tips, process or code to share?

@Alexey, is there an example of how to do this in the documentation or a scripts collection somewhere? I've been through the community forum and the Python API (I admit, it was a bit over my head and I should probably get my hands dirty) but haven't found any clear examples of how to do this.

Thanks!
