Agisoft Metashape 1.5.0 pre-release

[Dmitry Semyonov]

Pre-release version of Agisoft Metashape 1.5.0 (former PhotoScan) is available for download.

Metashape inherits all the professional photogrammetric kit features from PhotoScan and offers some more to enrich your experience into the space of intelligent photogrammetry.

The release is planned for the end of 2018. Product update will be free and smooth as usual PhotoScan version updates.

This pre-release is considered as unstable and is not recommended for production use.

To try cloud processing support (requires Professional edition license) please register at account.agisoft.com.

Please let us know if you have any problems using this version.

This topic will be removed when the final 1.5.0 version is released.

Note
Project files created with 1.5.0 version can't be opened with earlier versions.

EDIT:
Metashape 1.5.0 build 7492 was finally released. Thank you for useful feedback.

Please use the links on the main Metashape page for download:

I tried to register for Cloud Processing but I meet a problem in the register page.

I checked the "I agree with User's agreement" checkbox

I used Chrome and Internet Explorer, both of them shows the message asking me to agree although I have already checked the box.


I can do it with Microsoft Edge ^_^

Hello rexsham,

Thank you for reporting. We'll check what is the issue.

[regiser]

What's the meaning of "Refine Seamlines" ?

[3DFranz]

Is there a readme-File for the planed or already included changes, compared to the aktual version?
--> Done. I was blind. Sorry

I think that in Animation the user should have the option to define the view height.

Any additional information on the Cloud Processing functionality?

Will this be a 'free' feature available to those possessing a Professional License or will it be paid add-on? Besides what are the anticipated advantages for user's to process in the cloud? Is it expected to shorten processing time or only for those user's that are running a low-end system locally themselves? How will it compare to processing locally using a medium to high-end workstation, will it still be faster then?

Also, what about user control over the processing workflow? Does one remain fully in control of all processing steps and subsequent parameters or is all of the processing done autonomously by the system itself based on default pre-defined settings?

[Alexey Pasumansky]

Hello BobvdMeij,

Technically the cloud processing is similar to the network processing - you enable the Cloud in the Network preferences dialog, then open the project and configure the batch process or run some processing operation. After that (if the operation supports processing on a cloud, for example, the export can be performed locally only) you'll be asked, if the operation should be processed in the cloud. Providing that you accept that, the data will be first synchronized with the cloud and then processed with the user-defined settings. After the operation is completed the project will be synchronized with the cloud again.
You do not need to have Metashape GUI opened while the cloud processing is in progress, but in order to synchronize the project with the cloud you need to open the same project in GUI again.

In terms of the processing time - it is hard to say, as some time will be spent for the data synchronization and it could be quite long in case of very large projects. So mostly this feature would might be helpful for those who cannot process the data locally due to hardware limitations.

Currently the cloud is working in test mode and is free for the Professional license owners. However, after the testing is finished the cloud processing would be likely converted to paid service with the plans configurable in the user's account on the Agisoft Cloud page.

I guess my problem is that the Metashape Python 3 module is not installed. How do we install such a module after downloading the file Metashape-1.5.0-cp35.cp36.cp37-none-win_amd64.man for Windows 64?

[Alexey Pasumansky]

Hello Paul,

Does the orthomosaic generation works properly on the same project with the  "Refine Seamlines" option disabled? Also please check if the processing is running properly, if you enable Fine-level Task distribution for orthomosaic generation in the Network Preferences tab.

And you do not need to install Metashape Python module, it's only necessary for integration of Metashape functionality to some custom stand-alone Python scripts in order to work without a need of running Metashape application (neither in GUI, nor in headless mode).

Dear Alexey,

Yes I do get same error without Refine Seamlines option,,,see attached log file

[Alexey Pasumansky]

Hello Paulo,

OK, it seems I've managed to reproduce the problem. Meanwhile I suggest to enable Fine-level task distribution for the orthomosaic generation in the Network Preferences tab and see, if it helps.

[Paulo]

Thanks Alexey,

ye I did try with fine level task for ortomosaic and got a result using Refine Seamlines option. Of course it takes a longer time as it does many iterations to refine the seam lines…

However the result is not great as I would expect it to avoid building structures in seam lines path but in attached screen copy, it shows that it passes thru a lot of buildings….

[Alexey Pasumansky]

Hello Paul,

Refine Seamlines feature in general case assumes that the orthorectification is based on the DTM. Can you post the screenshot for the same area of the DEM view?
