How can I upload a photoset with an associated CSV?

If you have photos that you wish to view in Pointerra3D, but they do not contain any positioning information in the EXIF metadata, they can be uploaded with an associated CSV that contains the position of each photo.


  1. Prepare your CSV
    1. The coloumns must contain "name", "easting", "northing", "height". Any column after that can be added, but will not be read.
    2. The "name" must contain the file extension.
    3. "easting", "northing", "height" must be in the same units as the point cloud.
  2. In the point cloud navigate to Projects (1)as shown below.
  3. Click Add dataset (2)
  4. Select Photo set as the datasets type and click Next.
     
  5. Give the Dataset a name
    Set the Photo Inspection mode to EXIF
    Add the photo files and the CSV
  6. See how to view the photoset by visiting this help page How to inspect the source photos for a Point Cloud generated using Photogrammetry
