Hi there. I have been using Reality Capture for Drone Mapping before but now I encounted a strange error. We recently purchased the Mavic 3E with an RTK system.
When I try to align the images with the RTK information it mis-aligns some of the images. If I check the camera Prior pose information - the altitude is the same as the correctly aligned images. See image.
The images are made using the DJI RC Pro flight path and it automatically takes a bunch of images and tilts the gimbal position during the flight. All of the wrongly aligned images are the ones tilted in “reverse” and are upside down during the flight.
How can I avoid this in the alignment process?
I tried to change the Prior Pose - Absolute postion to only use the position and set the model to Brown4 with tangential2. It did fix some of the images, but not all of them.
The strange this is, that 1/5 of the images are probably these upside-down images and most of them are correctly aligned.
Any suggestions?
