Description

Hello,

I try to following process by python script.

  • Generate dense point clouds by using series of photo
  • Select points of objects (such as a vehicle) which appears in a photo from dense point cloud.
  • Export selected points (such as a vehicle) to file.

Is it possible by using OpenSfM?
Thank you in advance for your reply.

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named. Start by locating OpenSfM's dense point-cloud generation and export workflows, then check whether selecting object points from photo observations is supported. Done would require a clearly scoped supported workflow or implementation plan for selecting and exporting those points.
