Running

Arguments

Example: Photogrammetry

Process

1. Use droneframe to get frames filled with GPS & timestamp data.

$ droneframe path/to/DJI_001.MP4 -f 3 # Large drone video of subject.

2. Import the generated ./DJI_001 folder into your photogrammetry software of choice.
3. Enjoy your 3D recreation.

If constraints permit, you can always extract more with a higher framerate or generate an additional batch of frames from another video you have of the target.

End Result

This is a model of an abandoned structure that was created by running droneframe and uploading the resulting frames onto WebODM Lightning for 3D reconstruction.
