Zenmuse P1 - Orientation Values

It would appear it still struggles with the “Smart Oblique” functon used on the M300 to capture forward/rear/left/right photos simultaneously. We’ve tried processing this using the suggested Geometrically Verified process as above as well as on our “standard” settings but get the same poor calibration results.
The images that are no calibrated seem mostly to be the left/right facing oblique imagery rather than the forward/rear facing images. This may be down to us using the “aerial grid” option in initial step 1. i could choose the “free flight” however I would imagine this may push the processing time significantly more and there is no time for us to test this.
Any further comment/insight would be useful here…

Hi Ross,

Your issue does not seem to be related to the orientation values. It looks like the images do not calibrate. Could you please send us the following?

▸ The quality report (.pdf format): …\project_name\1_initial\report\project_name_report.pdf
▸ The project log file (text file): …\project_name\project_name.log
▸ The project file (.p4d): …\project_name.p4d

Best,

@Nikoleta_Dimopoulou here you go…

Hi Ross,

Thank you for this question.

There are a couple points from the quality report that should be addressed. Do you intend to use the GCP’s as checkpoints, or would you like to georeference the model? If georeferenced, they need to be selected as GCP’s

  • Delete/check GCP-3 as the values appear incorrect.

You may find How to add / import GCPs in the GCP/MTP Manager helpful .

What are you trying to capture? I wonder if there are large bodies of water, reflective surfaces, vegitation, etc. It would be helpful to see an orthomosaic of the subject matter as well. Can you please process using the following parameters:

  • Check Generate Orthomosaic Preview in Quality report.

  • “Standard” Calibration Method instead of “Accurate Geolocation and Orientation”

All you need to process is the 1. Initial processing step.

After the initial process if the issue persists, can you please send the Quality report.

Thank you!
