Riegl VMQ/Ladybug5 and Topodot project imagery exports

Post by mattsavage1976 »

Hi, I am not a Topodot user, we've always used Cyclone for feature extraction, but we're spreading out, trying new things. So, my question...

We use Riegl VMQ-1HA mobile scanners with Ladybug5 cameras. when exporting the imagery from Riprocess there is a Topodot project directory export option. It will provide all the correct camera calibrations, etc for topodot. But, me not knowing topodot, I don't know which imagery to export... Riegl has no documentation on this and i'm sure they'd direct me to Topodot support

Do i export the panoramics? Export imagery from each individual camera? do they need to be in specific subfolders?

If anyone uses this workflow and have suggestions, i'd really appreciate it!! Thanks!

Under settings, click on "register for university." This is a great place to start, the tool documentation is pretty good too.

You'll need to export the imagery from each individual camera as TopoDOT won't import panorama images.

I'm not familiar enough with RiProcess to guide you through a workflow, however.
