Exercise 3 - Food for thought

Deadline

Please complete this exercise (and questions) by the end of the current session.

Digital bananas

Banana for Scale

Based on the material covered in session 2:

• How would you proceed to get a digital model with dimensions equivalent to the real object?

• What should be the lowest number of photo haloes around an object?

• Once all has been decided, is there any possibility of throwing in automated processing?

Agisoft has been so kind to publish a tutorial on the digitisation of hand-sized samples, which we will follow and adapt for to-scale digitisation.

Have a look at the following Metashape tutorial, and proceed by digitising either the banana or the water jug. All required material is linked to from within the tutorial.

As an added exercise, make sure to create the standardised project directory and fill out the hand-sized sample metadata template found under resources.
