Processing very large areas

PIX4Dcloud PIX4Dcloud Questions/Troubleshooting
1

Hi Pix4Ders!

I have a project I need to map roughly 45sq kms. A total perimiter of aprox 115 kms. They need a pretty simple 2D ortho processed with vaugly acurate GIS positioning. (to the meter is sufficient so wont be using RTK)
I plan to break up the area into 20 seperate missions and merge later.

Question. Is Pix4D CLOUD even possible of processing such large areas? or would this strickly be Pix Mapper?
Im not 100% certain of the number of files I’ll be dealing with for each mission, looking at probably 50m AGL (to get a decent resolution) at 20MP likely.

I have never done a project this large. Is there anything else I need to be specifically aware of?? ie, how to plan the mission to merge them later?
How long would it take to process these in CLOUD?

TIA.

Hello @jp11

Is Pix4D CLOUD even possible of processing such large areas?

The processing time of a project in PIX4Dcloud depends on several factors, one of which is a limit on the number of images per project (4,000). Note that this limit may be lower depending on the image resolution, the number of images, and the available server resources.

I have never done a project this large. Is there anything else I need to be specifically aware of??

This depends on many factors. More details can be found at the following link: Processing time - PIX4Dcloud

I hope this information helps you.
