Point cloud for large/huge area
« on: January 31, 2013, 02:46:59 PM »
I have an area of say 2600 ha. The result should be delivered as a point cloud.
Massive task to generate and export in one chuck or project file indeed, isn't it?
However, it is possible to divide it in blocks.
What would you recommend as a tool to cut the blocks in a way that they fit one to another geographically absolutelly correctly.
Is it possible to do with Pscan? Bound box? No?
External software? Which?
Appreciate any ideas guys. Thank you.

Depends on the resolution and number of photos. I've processed models in one chunk with up to 3000 photos, each with 24 MP.

Hi
3000 images?
What was the altitude and total coverage?
If it is standard 450ft UAV performance then 3000 images it is not more than 600 ha or less
Correct?
