After capturing data with the 3DLM StreetMapper or V-Mapper, use the standard 3DLM tool SMProcess to process and prepare the data for importing into Orbit.

It is strongly recommend to read first following documentation :

• Understand Mobile Mapping data in Orbit
• Supported Resources for Mobile Mapping

• File : one ascii .pos text file
• Crs : default coordinate system is WGS84 geographic (EPSG 4326). To define a local projected crs contact (support at 3dlasermapping dot com)
• Data-structure : Flat ascii text file, tab separated, no column headers, with columns : timestamp, latitude, longitude, height, roll, pitch, heading, Y-accuracy, X-accuracy, Z-accuracy, pitch-accuracy, roll-accuracy, heading-accuracy

• Files : *.jpg files, each panorama is one jpg image file.
• Naming : exactly as described in photo position file (see above, last column)

1. Open your project in SMProcess
2. Add the ladybug streams to the project that need processing
3. Go to ‘Process Image Data’
4. Select the ladybug stream to process
5. Select the ‘Create Panoramic Images’ option
6. Click the ‘Add To Process Images’ button
7. Click on the ‘Event Options’ tab at the bottom
8. Select the ‘Create Orbit Photo List’ option
9. Click ‘Add To Process Events’ to create the Orbit Photo List
10. This file will be used in Orbit to import the panoramic image positions

• File : one or multiple .las files
• Crs : default coordinate system is WGS84 geocentric / ECEF (EPSG 4978). To define a local projected crs contact (support at 3dlasermapping dot com)
• Data-structure : default Las structure (v1.2)

1. Open your project in SMProcess
2. Add the lidar data to the project
3. Go to ‘Create Point Cloud’
4. Select the lidar file to process
5. Select the options to process with and the coordinate system to GeoReference it in
6. Click ‘Add To Process List’ to start processing the point cloud
