I uploaded a project, that I had marked my GCPs, from Desktop, but did not check the “start processing” button. I see the project in the cloud and it is labeled “uploaded” (in a black box).

Will the project be processed automatically?&nbsp; Do I need to do anything on my end to start the processing? What indicator do I have to know that it is being processed?

&nbsp;

Thanks for any help.&nbsp;

Hi Ronald,&nbsp;

The processing of the projects that were uploaded from Desktop without having the “Start processing” checked can at this time not be started from the Cloud interface. I have reported this need to our Cloud team.&nbsp;

For projects that were uploaded with the “Start processing” checked, there will be a “Processing” status bar on the project until it finishes, point at which it says “Processed”.&nbsp;
