Take control - select the correction method you want for your dataset
The updated #photogrammetry #survey processing workflow makes it easier to select your preferred correction method when uploading data captured for processing.
You can select to:
When you select to use your own correction method (assuming you upload photos with geo-tags), you can proceed with either your own corrections (non-Propeller PPK) or the standard (non-PPK) workflows.
Note that if you're a customer with only an Unlimited processing pack, all submissions for photogrammetry survey processing will now require a camera serial number in the uploaded files for the processing to proceed.?

You now have more control over who can access your worksite data. A removed user will lose all access to your portal, teams, and sites.

Magic Polygons just got a whole lot more powerful
The new and improved Magic Polygon tool will suggest boundaries for measurements or terrain cleanups, and allow you to effortlessly customize the number of suggested vertices and adjust the buffering around objects (e.g. a #stockpile ) to achieve your desired outcome.
Say goodbye to spending ages drawing polygons manually, because this tool is all about saving you time!
Specifically, you can:

For example, you might increase the number of vertices around a stockpile and increase the buffering to ensure you have a more accurate polygon and have captured the edges of a stockpile. This gives you a more reliable volume measurement and ensures you get consistent stockpile measurements throughout your project.
For a terrain clean-up, you might want to increase the buffering around an object such as a vehicle, or bridge before removing it from your terrain model. Thus helping you get more accurate #earthwork quantities.
Why it’s important
This updated Magic Polygon experience helps save you time by helping you to do Stockpile measurements and terrain clean-ups more quickly and with more control.??
