OpenDroneMap 3.0

Does the new engine warrant an update to the tutorial section for High Quality Orthophotos? Considering some of the older arguments have been removed, is there a new list of ortho-specific options/flags I should use if I want to create the highest quality orthomosaic? I haven’t tested anything yet, but I would consider:
–orthophoto-resolution
–skip-3dmodel
–mesh-size
–pc-quality
–fast-orthophoto
–auto-boundary
–feature-quality (maybe?)
–sfm-algorithm (triangulation, maybe?)

Welcome!

Yes, likely a refresh is warranted.

I’d focus most on the point cloud, so pc-quality, feature-quality, pc-filter, and finally orthophoto-resolution.

Sometimes using the 3d model improved my orthos.

The sfm algorithm isn’t so much about quality as it is about increasing speed, and can cause quality issues of the data are not appropriate.

Would be fun with a new book!

It’s lovely to have but outdated.

Hmmm… That looks familiar… :thinking:

I mapped 5 harbors this summer and ODM 2.X did not like the open ocean for its lack of features. ODM 3.0, however, does not mind and will map the open ocean!
