What is it?

OpenDroneMap is a toolchain for processing raw civilian UAS imagery to other useful products. What kind of products?

  1. Point Clouds
  2. Digital Surface Models
  3. Textured Digital Surface Models
  4. Orthorectified Imagery
  5. Classified Point Clouds
  6. Digital Elevation Models
  7. etc.

So far, it does Point Clouds, Digital Surface Models, Textured Digital Surface Models, and Orthorectified Imagery.

Steps to get OpenDroneMap running:

(Requires Ubuntu 12.04 or later, see https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/odm_vagrant for running on Windows in a VM)

Run install.sh to build.

./install.sh

From a directory full of your images, run

./run.pl

An overview of installing and running OpenDroneMap on Ubuntu can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e2qp3o8caPs

Here are some other videos:

Now that texturing is in the code base, you can access the full textured meshes using MeshLab. Open MeshLab, choose File:Import Mesh and choose your textured mesh from a location similar to the following: reconstruction-with-image-size-1200-results\odm_texturing\odm_textured_model.obj

For Ubuntu 15.10 users, this will help you get running:

sudo apt-get install python-xmltodict
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libproj.so.9 /usr/lib/libproj.so

Alternatively, you can also run OpenDroneMap in a Docker container:

export IMAGES=/absolute/path/to/your/images
docker build -t opendronemap:latest .
docker run -v $IMAGES:/images opendronemap:latest

To pass in custom parameters to the run.pl script, simply pass it as arguments to the docker run command.


Example data can be found at https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/odm_data


Long term, the aim is for the toolchain to also be able to optionally push to a variety of online data repositories, pushing hi-resolution aerials to OpenAerialMap, point clouds to OpenTopography, and pushing digital elevation models to an emerging global repository (yet to be named...). That leaves only digital surface model meshes and UV textured meshes with no global repository home.


Documentation:

For documentation, please take a look at our wiki.

Troubleshooting:

Make sure you have enough RAM and CPU. Only lowercase file extension supported now.

If you run ODM with your own camera, it is possible you will see something like this:

  - configuration:
    --cmvs-maxImages: 500
    --end-with: pmvs
    --match-size: 200
    --matcher-ratio: 0.6
    --matcher-threshold: 2
    --pmvs-csize: 2
    --pmvs-level: 1
    --pmvs-minImageNum: 3
    --pmvs-threshold: 0.7
    --pmvs-wsize: 7
    --resize-to: 1200
    --start-with: resize

This means that your camera is not in the database, https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/OpenDroneMap/blob/gh-pages/ccd_defs.json

This problem is easily remedied. We need to know CCD size in the camera. We'll get these for our Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX5 from dpreview: http://www.dpreview.com/products/sony/compacts/sony_dschx5/specifications

So, we'll add the following line to our ccd_defs.json:

 "SONY DSC-HX5V": 6.104,

To check that ccd_defs.json compiles, run ccd_defs_check.pl If it prints the message 'CCD_DEFS compiles OK', then you can commit your changes.

And so others can use it, we'll do a pull request to add it to our array for everyone else.


Maintainers can run the ccd_defs.json compilation test automatically by creating a symbolic link in .git/hooks to hooks/pre-commit

 cd .git/hooks
 ln -s ../../hooks/pre-commit

If ccd_defs.json does not compile, then the pre-commit hook will abort the commit.
