Description
Hello so Im trying to create my own dataset with the google colab notebook: https://colab.research.google.com/gist/kwea123/f0e8f38ff2aa94495dbfe7ae9219f75c/colmap_colab.ipynb#scrollTo=d9ryuCQt2hEv
First, I have trouble installing COLMAP, getting this error:
CMake Error at cmake/FindFLANN.cmake:91 (message):
Could not find FLANN
Call Stack (most recent call first):
CMakeLists.txt:95 (find_package)
After following all the steps and reach the "Run COLMAP!" cell it just says "no such file or directory: colmap'' (supposedly because it did not install well). I've seen other similar issues like #152 or #147 but they are not clearly explained nor exactly my problem. Is there maybe something else to take into consideration?
Thanks

Open the linked colmap_colab.ipynb and inspect the installation steps and the “Run COLMAP!” cell, starting with the reported cmake/FindFLANN.cmake failure. Reproduce the notebook in Colab and verify that the final cell can invoke colmap without FileNotFoundError.
