Zenmuse XT2 thermal images not being recognized (FLIR format not yet supported) #1

Open brownish opened 3 weeks ago

brownish commented 3 weeks ago

I am having an issue converting thermal images from the DJI Zenmuse XT2. I'm getting the following error:

1.08% --> This image is not a Thermal DJI Image: thermal_100_1.RJPG

Any workaround for this?

Thanks!

Hi @brownish! thanks for opening the issue. the images you are trying to convert are already in RJPG format, (it is the FLIR proprietary format). Currently my converter does not support the conversion of this format into tiff. But your images are already ready (pun intended) to be used in 3d reconstruction softwares like pix4d or metashape, they should work without a problem as they are out of the camera.

My converter was made because after the XT2, DJI ended the partnership with FLIR and started to save images with their own proprietary format and data storage method inside the .jpg thermal images (they call these images RJPG also, which adds a lot of confusion: yes they are radiometric, yes you can view them in the dji thermal analysis tool, no you cannot use them inside FLIR software or any other known software.

My conversion tool is here to solve this problem, convert the dji proprietary images into TIFF, a format that is much more open and usable with many softwares and viewers.

The previous models of dji cameras, outputs RJPG (FLIR) images, so they are already compatible with some softwares. Unfortunately as of now they cannot be converted in TIFF with my tool, it is a functionality I will try to add in the future.

Anyway, thanks for raising the issue, Best Regards!
