Hi all!
I am having issues with generating a thermal ortho with ODM on my Windows computer using WSL2 (Ubuntu) and Docker.
I used these parameters:
--dem-resolution 3
–dsm \
–feature-quality high \
–matcher-type bruteforce \
–orthophoto-resolution 3 \
–radiometric-calibration none \
–gcp /datasets/solar/gcp_list.txt \
–skip-3dmodel \
–skip-report
Here is the compressed version of the ortho.
The data was collected with a DJI M3T with 70/70 overlap for a PV system. 20 GCPs were collected using a GNSS receiver and tagged using UAV4Geo GCP Editor Pro. (I wanted to add an image of the shots overlay in QGIS, but this is my first post). Image dataset: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1cRqBk6ZlSV2inx2omg8O9frOaRHT0swu?usp=drive_link
Any help is greatly appreciated! I’m trying to use open-source software for my thesis work. I really want to feature work with ODM. Thank you!
My thermal knowledge is extremely limited. Steve and others will have more insight regarding settings. Having said that, I wonder if things improve by trying to do less, then that might give us additional info to troubleshoot and work back up to the full dataset. You might try:
- Leave out the GCPs
- Run just a subset of the data (e.g., just the northern 1/3 of photos)
And see if things improve?
My knowlege in this space is almost none, but I’m working on an app that allows running ODM on a decentralized network. I ran your images with the --fast-othophoto parameter on just to see if I also get the same gap as you, but it seems to be full to me:
Probably this doesn’t prove anything, but would you mind uploading your gcp_list.txt file to the storage as well? I would try and run it with exactly the same settings as you did to see if I get the same.
I appreciated it! Yeah, that fast-orthophoto looks pretty complete to me. I added the gcps to try and get the panel distortions fixed.
Attached is the gcp_list.txt link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FXJGueIJBtzhzSXjbUWgzOWabJieLaXK/view?usp=drive_link
Seems like it worked but you tell me:
These were the settings, hope I made it right:
In case you need to run any other set of images or you want to try to rerun this one with other parametest, you are welcome to try hivecloud dot tech. It is very much a beta, expect failiures, but I’m working on making it more stable and reliable
Thank you! I think I may have realized my issue has to do with limited RAM. I really appreciate all your help!!
no worries, good luck with your thesis!
