Description

I tried to use opensfm to reconstruct some images takes by a car camera with accurate GPS. As the number of images is quite large, it takes a lot of time to obtain the result. I have also tried to split the dateset into pieces and used align submodels to merge them, but there are some error in the connecting parts. So, is it possible to use opensfm to do global reconstruction like openmvg?

Research direction

Start by reviewing OpenSfM's reconstruction workflow and the align submodels process described in the issue. Compare the requested global reconstruction behavior with the existing workflow and OpenMVG's approach. Done means determining whether global reconstruction is supported or defining the scope needed to support it, including reliable connections between submodels.
