Hi All,

Thanks to this post from @geofis, a pull request from @pierotofy, and testing from a range of folks including @Saijin_Naib, we’ve got better point cloud coverage in OpenDroneMap.

I don’t highlight improvements here enough, but this will make a bit difference for more difficult and complicated datasets.

Hello,

Thank you @smathermather for the mention and for everyone’s efforts on this improvement. It’s great to see our collective work enhancing OpenDroneMap, especially for challenging datasets. And also thanks to @pierotofy for the pull request and @Saijin_Naib for testing, along with all others involved.

I look forward to updating you on the potential applications of this improvement for historical aerial imagery.

I love it when folks test our stuff to the limits and help us improve. So, your role here cannot be understated. Also, what a pleasant surprise that the config change seems to work well across datasets not requiring another flag!
