Search & Open best photo
Add, Move and Focus Views trigger the request to Search and Open the “best” image.
Depending on the use case and data-type other methods or configurations can be used.
Anyway, the action consists of 2 consecutive steps
- Get Candidates
- Sort Photos
Get Candidates
Find relevant photos around the requested Focus Coordinate.
Any photo becomes a candidate if
- Focus Coordinate is nearby the Photo Coordinate (Search Radius)
- Focus Coordinate is in the field of View of the Photo.
Searching for candidates incremental increases the search radius and ends when
- 10 or more candidates are found, or
- the maximum search radius is reached.
Sort Photos
Sort candidates by relevance, to get the best image and order alternative images.
The best image has the smallest value for the selected option
Available sort
- By Direction offset
Offset between the Candidate Direction (Candidate to Focus Coordinate) and Request Direction (3D View Position to Focus Coordinate). - By Pixel offset
Pixel offset of the Focus Coordinate projected on the Candidate Image to the Candidate Image Center. - By Spatial distance
Spatial distance of the Focus Coordinate to the Candidate Coordinate.
