Georeferencing? #705

Open CarlosGrohmann opened 4 years ago

CarlosGrohmann commented 4 years ago

Are there any plans to include georeferencing in Meshroom?

I've been working with SfM-MVS in Geosciences (modelling landslides, aeolian dunes, quarry walls) and for these applications, we need to have the dense point cloud (sometimes the final mesh) with absolute coordinates (usually in UTM).

This is usually done by finding targets in the photos and assigning to them their coordinates, which ill be used in an export step to shift/scale/rotate the point cloud to its real-world coordinates.

thanks and congratulations on the great software!

Yes this is a frequently requested feature: https://github.com/alicevision/meshroom/issues/230 https://github.com/alicevision/AliceVision/issues/402 https://github.com/alicevision/meshroom/issues/246

You are welcome to contribute this feature.

At the moment Meshroom only supports CCTAG markers.
