Processing failed after 16h37m

Imaging at -85 deg camera angle with an M2P, an area of scattered clumps of trees and grassy areas which I have stitched together previously without problems- suggestions as to why it may have failed this time would be appreciated.

Can you re-try with --feature-quality high and everything else the same?

OK thanks, I will start it now.

That worked, but I’m not sure why ultra feature quality would be a problem.

I’m guessing here, but super big reconstruction boundary due to sky and background not being masked and thus really big memory requirement, and lowering feature-quality side-steps this issue a bit.

No sky in any of the images, most taken at -85deg, with a few at around -60 of a house

I encountered the same error at the same point in processing in a job I just ran. I used about triple the images, but memory did not seem to be an issue. I was monitoring resource usage at the time of failure. CPU had been maxed for awhile, but memory was at 50% utilization or less. All jobs at high quality or lower have been successful, but I haven’t managed an ultra quality job yet. I’m planning to queue up some experiments to see what the magical flag combination is, if there is one.

Imaging at -70 deg camera angle with a Parrot Anafi, altitude 125ft AGL, river flood plain with minimal vegetation, for the purpose of creating a DTM of restoration earthworks.

Processed on a platform with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800x 8 core, 128gb ram.

Options: build-overviews: true, dem-resolution: 1.0, dtm: true, feature-quality: ultra, orthophoto-resolution: 1.0, pc-geometric: true, pc-las: true, pc-quality: ultra, pc-rectify: true, verbose: true, rerun-from: opensfm

This was a rerun because it failed before, and I had the ignore-gsd flag set. A different thread said that can lead to unpredictable failures, so I removed it and set manual resolutions instead.

Here’s the end of my log:

Welcome!

Sorry you had trouble, but thanks for posting good debug info.

So, same job on same machine with high instead of ultra passes reliably? Interesting…

Yes, same image set - high worked, ultra failed.
