Locating position of image within the pointcloud

Post by D.Thunder »

Hey,

I am trying to find out if it is possible to "place/locate" where a panoramic picture was taken whilst a scan was being produced.

Is it possible to position or georeference the location of a specific image within cloudcompate in relation to the pointcloud data?

CloudCompre can create 'sensor' objects, but only standard pinhole cameras (Edit > Sensors > Camera) or terrestrial laser scanners (Edit > Sensors > TLS/GBL). I don't know if the camera sensor would allow you to at least represent the 'camera center' of the panoramic picture...

CC would have automatically created a camera sensor object when loading a E57 file if it was a standard picture. But currently we don't even try to load the panoramic camera sensor...
