Float Divison by zero error

s6mastra · 16 March 2018 09:59

Hello,

i have a problem processing drone images at work with WebODM. I bought the Installer Version and installed WebODM on Windows 7.
I have different flight paths to process and so far only one path out of many went through without any problems.
When i try to process the other pictures i get the same error every time. A part of the error message contains “ZeroDivisionError: float division by zero”, so i tried to change some options before processing which cointained a “0” as default. Sadly this didn´t help.

I would really appreciate some help.
Sorry for my bad english.

Hey @s6mastra could you upload your images somewhere (dropbox, google drive, etc.) so that we can take a look? Perhaps there’s something wrong with your images’ EXIF tags.

s6mastra · 19 March 2018 12:33

Hi @pierotofy,
thanks for your response. Here is a Dropbox Link: Olifant River 60m Dropbox

...
GPS Version ID                  : 2.3.0.0
GPS Altitude Ref                : Above Sea Level
GPS Measure Mode                : 3-Dimensional Measurement
GPS Dilution Of Precision       : 0

The problem is in the Dilution of Precision (DOP) field being set to zero. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_of_precision_(navigation)

Did you manually set some of these values, or did they come straight from the drone’s camera? If they came straight from the camera, we might want to open an issue on https://github.com/mapillary/OpenSfM/issues to see if we can add the necessary logic to handle zero DOP values.

s6mastra · 19 March 2018 14:30

Ok i see. I did not set any values, so the come straight from the drone´s camera.
Can you recommend any freeware to change the values?
Thanks a lot!

smathermather · 24 April 2018 02:16

@s6mastra – you might set that to a value between 3 and 5: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dilution_of_precision_(navigation)#Meaning_of_DOP_Values

I have added an issue to OpenSfM:
