What's New Version 21.10

Highlights

3DM Desktop Core

New Features and Enhancements

  • New Tool 'Create Grid'
    This tool to create a grid will use the extent of the source dataset and the selected cell width and height to create an orbit vector file where every object represents a grid cell.
  • New Vector Source Format 'Odb'
    Odb vector files can be directly converted and optimized into another vector format.
  • New Dataset Properties 'Metadata'
    The metadata fields can be entered for both reference resources and mapping resources. The metadata properties are automatically filled in after uploading to 3DM Cloud and 3DM Publisher. The mapping resource procedure 'Metadata' redirects to this dataset property.
  • Vector Dataset Structure Management
    • Filter Formula List in Vector Dataset Structure
      The dropdown list of formulas attributes now has an entry field where the list can be filtered on a specific word.
    • Update Attribute Datatype Correspond to Attribute Formula
      When setting the attribute rule to a formula, the datatype will automatically change to the datatype that corresponds with the formula. The datatype is fixed and cannot be changed to avoid conflict with measure/detection results.
  • Autofill Collection Date Start and Stop
    Resources that have absolute GPS time can use the Autofill button to automatically fill in the collection data start and stop, using the min and max timestamp of the resource.
  • Procedure to Reprocess Envelope and Trajectory Simplified
    The procedure to reprocess the envelope has been extended with the option to reprocess the trajectory simplified. The envelope will now use both the extent of the photo positions and pointcloud to calculate the envelope area.

Usabilities

  • Use Shift to select multiple taks in the task manager.

Bug fixes

  • The image annotations didn't update when multiple views were opened and synchronize views was enabled.
  • The panoramic image viewer didn't follow the chose zoom direction.
  • Selecting/unselecting the model from a multimodel dataset didn't work as expected.
  • The 2D tool 'Select Objects Within Fence' selected the wrong objects by using the full spatial extent of the objects.

3DM Content Manager

The 3DM Content Manager includes all 3DM Core improvements.

New Features and Enhancements

  • Removed Resource Groups from List of Cloud Resources
    The list of Cloud resources to update or download no longer includes the resource groups as these cannot be downloaded or updated. This only works on individual resources.

3DM Feature Extraction

The 3DM Feature Extraction includes all 3DM Core improvements.

New Features and Enhancements

  • Image Annotation to Object via Task Manager
    The image annotation to object job can be send to the task manager.
  • Image Annotation to Object via Batch File
    The image annotation to object job can be run via a batch file in the bin_tools folder of the installation.

3DM Viewer

The 3DM Viewer includes all 3DM Core improvements.

New Features and Enhancements

  • Support of 3D Web Ready Scalable Mesh
    The 3D web ready scalable mesh can be uploaded to the cloud and publisher to display in the 3DM Viewer.
  • Clickable Mapping Resource Photo Positions
    The photo positions have been made clickable on the reference view and in the 3D views. The opened view with the corresponding view mode will move to that position. If no view is open with the corresponding view mode, a new view will be added to the workspace.
  • Manage Navigation Gestures
    The new viewer settings item 'Navigation' can be used to define the navigation gestures for the left, middle and right mouse click. The possible actions are pan, rotate, zoom and zoom (continuous). The preset configurations will set the gestures to the corresponding application: google, OpenCitiesPlanner, Orbit and Itwin.
  • Display Image Resource Name
    The new Image Views setting 'Display resource name' will add the resource name of the opened image to the view.
  • Display Child Name of Resource Group in View Metadata
    In the image view metadata, the resource group name and resource child name are both displayed.
  • Ignore Invalid Geocoding Bounding Box
    When the geocoding engine sends an invalid bounding box (for example, having two equal coordinates), the current zoom level on the reference view is retained. The returned geocoding coordinate is still used as a focus coordinate. This was also patched to version 21.7.
  • Update Publication Enabled after Adding/Deleting Annotations
    After adding or deleting annotations, the publication can be saved.
  • Hover Appearance for Measure Settings
    The 3D hover appearance can be set via the measurement settings.

Layout

Bug fixes

  • The resource group pointcloud legend was not saved in a publication.
  • The view action menu to download a pointcloud was not visible in the slice view.
  • The view action menu to download a pointcloud was not working when the workspace only had pointcloud resources.
  • When the number of measurements was more than 50, they could not be properly displayed. This has been resolved by integrating a table where every page has maximum 10 measurements listed.
