Prepare Vexcel Osprey Data

This page describes the original Vexcel Ultracam Osprey oblique mapping resources for Orbit import.

Use the corresponding Orbit Import Template to import the described original data.
It is recommend to read first Concepts of Mobile Mapping and UAS data in Orbit.

Today the Ultracam Osprey Camera 1 should not be imported, skip the import step and continue from Camera 2.

• Files : *.tif files, each oblique image is one tif image file.
• Naming : Exactly as the result of “Concat([Nr],[Filename_Suffix])”, from the photoposition file bellow.

• File : one *.csv or *.txt file for each camera
• Structure : Flat ascii text file
  • Rows : each image is one record
  • Columns : semicolumn separated (char59), headers, with exact order as the example below.
• Structure of file name : Exactly as the result of “Concat([Nr],[Filename_Suffix])” from the example bellow.
• Crs : Any supported projected coordinate system can be used, but all imported oblique resources should have the same crs.

• File : one *.tif file with corresponding *.tfw
• Naming : free of choice
• Crs : Any supported projected coordinate system can be used, but all imported oblique resources should have the same crs.
