Quantix drone images

Does anyone here have experience using Pix4DFields with a Quantix drone? I’ve done a test stitch from a 150 acre field, and it stitched really well, (no surprise since Pix4D is pretty much the gold standard), but I’m not able to see the RBG layer. Plus, I’m not sure that it is correctly identifying the images as having been generated by the Quantix, and I can’t find the icmdb.xml file anywhere on my computer.

Thanks!

Hi Mark,

Are you processing the RGB images as a separate project and red, green, NIR images as another project? As soon as you process the images you will see the orthomosaic (RGB) and the DSM. Those are the very first outputs of Pix4Dfields.

In Pix4Dfields you can not see the icmdb.xml file. To check if the images were imported and read by the software I suggest you check in the log files: Here some instructions of how to get them or you can gladly contact support

Kind regards,

Fernanda,

Thank you for the reply. I’m testing that now, and it looks like that’s exactly what was needed! Everything looks good.

Thanks again,

Mark

Hi Aaron, and wow - it has been six years since my last post. I haven’t flown any missions in five years, so am probably your least helpful person on the planet, but I’m willing to see if I can brush the dust off my brain cells. What are your specific issues?

Also, if you need a spare Quantix for parts, mine is potentially available. It was in need of a minor repair and motor replacement, then I had a job change and we moved overseas, (and this thing called COVID happened all at the same time…).

Most people have never even heard of the drone, so hence why I have been cowering the internet looking for help.

The guy I bought it from has “helped” but that’s all just been a way for him to not have to take the drone back.

So again, I’m just trying to find what the most realistic option even is.
