i have a set of images, 147 of them taken with a mavic 2. Im trying to run a process to create just an ortho. No need for gcp’s. It barely even starts to calibrate and fails.

Any ideas why that would be??

Hello @Ryan_Beisaw

Can you share the log files with us? _Help\>Export project logs_

Is this behavior recurring? Have you tried different processing settings?

Best regards,

Hello  
I am getting the same error, it is recuring and the job will work if I click start again without changing anything. Log file is over 4mb so can’t upload.
