@Jakub - Thank you so very much for this marvelous program Reality Capture and most particularly for this excellent video series. But more than all of that, you and anybody else that's tied to your company, Capturing Reality, are to be highly commended for the business model that you've adopted and how licensing is approached. Finally, a world-class product predicated on the most fair and reasonable fee structuring that I've ever seen. Well done!
The 'Suggest Measurements' feature isn't the smartest compared to Metashape, but the workflow for adjusting gcp's with images is still rather efficient.
Great set of videos, thank you for going into so much detail. I've a question about the number of GCPs to use. I'm mapping an earthworks site which is around 14acres and am using a total station to set some GCPs throughout the site. On my last model I used 18 GCPs. Is there any disadvantage to using so many, other than taking more time to confirm locations in the images?
Can reality capture handle GCPs scaled to ground coordinates vs being on grid coordinates? I ran both and had trouble with the ground coordinates. Grid worked fine but doesn't work well for us downstream in our overall company work flow.
Hi Thomas, I am not sure what you mean. Are the GCPs in some specific coordinate system or is it local? It should handle it, but can you be more specific?
I went to your website and because it didn't;t recognize my email as a 'business account" it wouldn't let me request a demo ... so .. I'm moving on to the next option ... shame, it looked viable
@Jakub - Many thanks for this tutorial! I'm totaly new to this RC and have some questions about differences between the files you use in your tutorial and the online datas provided on RC website: 1 - Coordinates system: You use epsg: 5514, and on the website description about coordinates are separated in horizontal epsg: 4258 and heights in Baltic vertical epsg: 8357. How should i deal with those informations in the RC settings? Am i supposed to use the epsg from the country i work from or the epsg the pictures were taken from? 2 - Group calibration Exif: All images from downlaoded file are the same focal (e.g 24mm). Is it necessary to change GCExif to "Yes"? 3 - Distortion model: How do you know what DModel to choose? Is it relative to the drone/optics constructor? 4 - GCPs: The downloaded file is already provided with Ground Control Points going from 101 up to 203, but there is no negative values like in your tutorial. If i import GC with File Format X, Y, Z i get an error from RC, so i assumed they were more lat, long and alt coordinates and it worked. But i had to manually adapt the images suggestions because they were all above the picture in the 3d viewport. Everything worked fine until the .csv step at the end of wich i got an error msg from RC. How should i use those informations? Also the .csv infos are provided with the downloaded files, i don't know where to go with those, like i'm confused! 5 - Readme file: It says we should change the path to the source folders in the SetVariables.bat as follow: * RealityCaptureExe - path to installation folder RC.exe is stored. *RootFolder - path to all source folder. How do i do that? (cmd prompt, but don't know how to do it properly) That's a lot of questions, so in advance thank you for your answers Jakub!
Hi Vincent, I will try to answer your questions: 1. The dataset which you can download from our site is another than used in this workflow. Regarding to coordinate system, you can set Project and Output coordinate systems in Application settings )(they could be different). Also, if you are importing each files (like GCPs you can set their own coordinate system). You can set these systems as you need or to in which system are the data. In your case you can set 5514 for project and output coordinate system, but 4258 when you will import the GCPs. 2. It is not necessary but you can do this. It is better do do when you have different focal lengths. 3. For most cases is OK to use pre defined distortion model. When you have fish eye optic, then you can use Division. 4. Yes, GCPs should be in Lat/Long (4258). It is quite usual thing to manually place the GCPs over images, as drone data are not always in correct heights. Usually they are measured from the take off height. Did you realign the component after GCP's placing? Also, you should set No in Use camera priors for georeferencing under Alignment settings in this case. 5. You can open that BAT file in Notepad++ for example and change these paths there.
Hello Jakub, i did it with the script, i used Visual Studio Code to open files. Everything went well, while during the process RC crashed right after the texturing operation. Don't know why, might be because i'm only 16Gb ram? I will try to do it step by step today, like you do in the tutorial instead of running the script, and let you know how it goes. Thank you so much again, have a nice day Jakub!
No Jakub, no error before but a crash during the execution of the script right after Texturing step and i did not change anything in the script. I will try again and send a crash report if it helps and if possible.
Great work Jakob, very informative and professional tutorial. Which capture app would you recommend based on your experience, Drone Deploy, Pix 4D Capture, Map Pilot Pro, ESRI Site Scan LE or the paid Drone Link? Is the Terrain awareness important to vary altitude and keep the flight height parallel to ground and keep a consistent GSD? Is a good rule of thumb to keep the GSD typically below 20mm by selecting appropriate flight level? Many thanks.
Dear Lee, we don't recommend concrete application. RealityCapture works with images and it is on your preferences which is best for you. It depends on your work and what you need to obtain. But it is better to follow the terrain because of the same GSD and non changing overlap. Regarding to GSD, it also depends of your needs and what for you are doing that project.
Great Video. I am currently working on making an underwater model of a deep-sea coral garden. I have the lat, long, and altitude of the ROV that took the images. Is it better to import a flight log or ground control points? Or a combination of the two to accurately georeference and provide scale?
@@CapturingReality I understand. Thank you. One last thing. In the context of just ground control points. Is it necessary to add GCPs to all the photos in the model or just specific areas within the model? I am exporting the scaled dense point cloud into cloudcompare and ArcGIS problems as a DEM.
@@ignacio_the_coralbiologist The GCPs should be placed around your captured area evenly. It is not necessary to add them on each image. The number depends on the used dataset, but basically it the point is measured/placed/added on 10 images, it should be enough for most cases.
@capturing reality How does RC handle Check Points? In accurate mapping, processing without CPs is just pretty pictures. Maybe it's in one of the next vids? Thanks!
Hi Dave, you can choose some of the Control points as Check points and then find out the accuracy of created model. In RC it is called Ground test. In this video the control points are in the Importing control points measurements part.
@Jakub - I am having trouble aligning the images - I have done a vertical facade survey of some silos with a 65% photo overlap. When i insert the images and align I seem to get lots of small components that dont make sense. It seems either RC isnt placing the images in the correct GPS locations. Is there a way to fix this? Would uploading the flight logs help at all?
Hello Jakub, Thank you for your tutorials. I would like to ask, that: Is it possible to sort Control points by name? I chceck accuracy my 3D models and I have more than 100 control points and I have problem with orientation in my list. Thank you for your answer Stano
@@CapturingReality Hello Jakub, If I can, i have one more question. I´m researching created 3D model without gps, total station and scanner. I would like to define scale of model only with reference distance and find optimal position of scale. Is it possible to define only reference distance and than control accuracy of model with masured points with total station? Because when I don´t choose some ground control point my model gave me to wrong positition and accuracy didn´t wrote true accuracy. When I choosen all my measured points with total station, defined points like ground test it is not moved 3d model to optimal position for minimal errors? Or do you have some idea for check accuracy when I want to define only reference distance? Thank you Stano
@@StanislavStehel Yes, it is possible to scale your model just with the distance. It is better to use more scales (it also depends on the size of the model) and you need to use correct distance (not too short). Are you using drone dataset? When you are using total station, you can also use these points as GCPs (it is better, as they have better precision as RTK GNSS). Ground test is just for comparison, these points don't have the influence on created model. Best way is use some coordinate system or local coordinate system to check the accuracy.
You can create them manually (Alignment tab/Optional/Add Control Points) and set the points as Ground control or you can import those as TXT file under Workflow tab/Import & Metadata/Ground control).
@@CapturingReality oh no I don't have gcps or rtk. I have always used drone deploy in the past but I have just started using reality capture and I love all the customization and In my opinion the maps and models created with reality capture are so much better than drone deploy. Most of the mapping I've done commercially are only concerned with relative accuracy and not so much absolute. I love the tutorials but they were so indepth with incorporating gcps it was hard to follow. That is why I was suggesting possibly another set but with out the gcps. Thank you so much for the quick response. Looking forward to learning more about the software.
At the 9th minute and 19th second of the video, you import the CSV file containing the image coordinates of the images associated with the points. I also followed the steps you showed. At the end of the steps I took: Operation warning The file contains 42 images that are not in the current scene. Please check the console for the full list of images.

Hi, this is just a warning message that there are some images in CSV file which are not included in your project. You can continue ordinary in the process.
The same way how any other images. If there is a good overlap they will be aligned, if the images are georeferenced, they will be aligned. When not, you can use control points to merge two separate components. The principles could be take from this tutorial: ruclips.net/video/kKA-KxT25KA/видео.html

@@stephanieramos8464 Hi, the video wasn't updated. You just need to set the precisions for the images in the Alignment settings (Camera prior settings).
Hello, Thank you for your tutorials. I have a question. In Drone Imagery + Ground control points of free sample datasets, Control points' Altitude is Higher than Images' Alititude. Is these Ground Controls correct?
Hi yes, the control points are correct. Problem is with the image height, where DJI drones use relative height, not the actual one (forum.dji.com/thread-165794-1-1.html). So it is possible in some cases, that there are these differences.
10:29 *Disabling inaccurate camera priors* With Ctrl+D and an immediate Ctrl+A what is selected is actually just part of all images; I think it's either all the just prior manually georeferenced images or all images that still aren't. Is this intended or should all images actually be selected?

@CapturingReality thanks. I'm using 3dsmax. I found I can get a individual camera per photo with fbx. Is there a way or a tool to have that be an animated camera instead for tracking?
@CapturingReality i am trying to use reality capture to do a tracking shot in 3dsmax. The footage I'm tracking is 200 frames. RC generates a nice model and 200 individual cameras. I would like to know if it can generate an animated camera
@@mikegentile13 In RC you can create an animation (ruclips.net/video/RLgFpbmJ4WA/видео.html). But that will result as a video, the cameras won't be exported from that.
RealityCapture supports true ortho projections of textured models and image mosaicing. For the true ortho, double grid flight with obliques is better. For image mosaicing, nadir shots are better, especially when they are projected on the digital terrain model. Remember that you can use both obliques and nadir shots in a single project and then disable and enable groups of images for specific processing steps.
No, it is definitely not wrong. It depends on the use case. Double grid flight was recommended as one of the options for mitigating the bowl effect. This project used a single grid flight but was corrected with the help of ground control points.
