Large Scale Ortho

Hi. Forgive me if this has been covered before, but I am hoping to find a little help with processing a large scale ortho.

So I am scanning inner cities and am using a drone for capture. The capture is done in a precise grid and can consist of 1000 to 3000 jpg images. I can get these images into RC and create the point cloud with relative ease, but I am hoping to get some help with the workflow to produce a very high resolution output from directly above.

Could some kind soul please describe the best workflow to follow that will produce excellent results.

On occasion with the higher scaled scans I get an out of memory error when trying to produce a high detail point cloud. Is there a way to prevent this from happening and still maintain high detail?

Thank you

Hi Alasdair,

again, I have to ask what exactly you are after?

Do you want to know what each individual step should be? Or how much simplification the model needs? Or which settings you should use?

I am afraid that there are no correct answers for all of these questions because it all depends! On what you have and what you need. If you phrase the question more specifically, maybe we can help you then…
