Create panorama


Create Panorama tool creates and associates a panoramic spherical projector to a point cloud (both structured and unstructured), by calibrating a series of perspective images on the point cloud.


Some requirements are due: 

  • The images must be taken from the same point of view
  • only a regular rotation of camera is permitted (i.e. an image every 30° during camera rotation), but a complete 360° rotation is not mandatory.


  1. Start by Dragging & Dropping at least one model from the tree view in the Project Window
  2. If the sensor which acquired the scan is not defined (sensor Unknown), select the proper one in the drop down menu
  3. Associate at least one image to each model by selecting it


 


  1. Calibrate Camera: select an image (among the imported ones) and proceed with the camera calibration (as explained in Camera calibration on a grid).


Settings

Calibration settings can be singularly adjusted for each model



or globally defined for every model (Define Global Settings) in a similar way.
