local LIDAR dataset #4

Open JanTiede opened 2 years ago

JanTiede commented 2 years ago

Hi, I'd like to provide my own lidar dataset for the rectification of a surfwebcam in Germany. It fails when I try it with the GUI. Should this be possible with the toolbox out of the box or does it require an extension of the underlying code?

Best regards and thanks for your work

Jan

Hi Jan,

Thanks for your interest in the tool! The use of a personal lidar dataset is not something that is possible as written now. However, this is something that is a really clear enhancement and would not be overly difficult to implement (though would require recompiling the gui). If you'd like to implement the change, I welcome that!

Hi Jan and Matt,

I am running into a similar issue when trying to use a previously downloaded lidar point cloud in the 'use a saved lidar point cloud' section:

"/main.py", line 618, in getInputs_NotWebCAT f = open(basePth+'/_binaries/chosenLidarID.pkl','rb')

Just wondering if either of you has started to implement the aforementioned enhancement for the use of personal data sets for calibration yet?

Thanks for your work, it's a really fantastic tool.

Best, Owen

Hi Owen,

No one has started making this change. I think it would just require going through that section of code and making sure all of the necessary inputs are sorted out correctly.

I'll try to make some time for this soon.
