Description

Hi! I wanted to know how images with different (varying) zoom levels can be used to create a reconstruction? Using incremental reconstruction, it ends up reconstructing a curved surface for flat land. Is there some parameter that can be used to fix this?

Additionally, could you point me to references that I can read to understand how both incremental and triangulation reconstruction algorithms works in some detail? The documentation is superficial.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing documentation for incremental and triangulation reconstruction, then investigate how varying image zoom levels are handled. Document the supported workflow, whether a parameter addresses curved reconstruction of flat land, and references that explain both algorithms in more detail.
