Hello guys,
I use this post for my questions because I’ve done few projects combining LiDAR and Photogrammetry.
Usually I only use LiDAR for the meshing step and photogrammetry for the texture step, exactly like you. And I thought the depth map calculations (Alignment) wouldn’t change anything on the sparse point cloud and therefore wouldn’t modify the mesh.
This project is about to scan a cathedral front. And here are my tests on a statue from the front with the following settings :
- LiDAR only
- Photogrammetry Only
- LiDAR/Photogrammetry (Full settings “enable”)
- LiDAR/Photogrammetry (Mesh disable for photogrammetry)
Before this project I used the same settings without any problem.
The “Photogrammetry Only” quality is explained by the large dimensions of the cathedral
Maybe I used wrong settings this time, but I can’t combine LiDAR and Photogrammetry correctly. Do you have an idea?
See attached pictures, thank you!
