Palaeontologist: Dinosaur Footprints – Biomechanics – Simulation
I should probably have made this post sooner, as it's about my chapter in the Great Dinosaur Track Book Of 2016: "Dinosaur Tracks: The Next Steps". It's a volume I was privileged enough to be an editor for, and it contains a number of excellent chapters. I wanted to post about my own... Continue Reading →
Here's the original post, and links to all posts I have previously outlined my goal of testing multiple photogrammetry solutions on a single dataset, and reporting times and results. I'm using a dataset based on photographs of this Styracosaurus model (I've had it since I was quite young): The dataset has 53 photos in total,... Continue Reading →

In which I tried - and failed - to document pros and cons for about a million different combinations of software.
OpenMVG is a pipeline for structure from motion. I’ll go through the basics of downloading, installing, and running it on Windows 10. It does actually compile on Windows, but it can be a royal pain in the rear to get everything set up properly (requiring Visual Studio, Python, and a lot of luck). Far... Continue Reading →
Continuing my series of using photogrammetry software, we come to MeshRecon, by Zhuoliang Kang. This is one of my favourite photogrammetry pipelines, and it's dead easy to use: Download the Zip file from Kang's Webpage here: http://zhuoliang.me/meshrecon.html Unzip the folder somewhere, and inside are 4 sub-folders (img, meshrecon, results, and vsfm), a readme, and a...

This is a re-post of a document I placed on Academia.edu a few years ago. In fact, that academia paper has sat in Academia.edu's top 0.5% of papers in terms of views for some time. However, I'm reposting for two reasons: 1. Academia.edu have added so many 'premium' (i.e. costly) features that I'd like it... Continue Reading →
Ok, this isn’t really necessary, but I’m posting it for completeness sake as part of an upcoming blog post. This will just give you a quick rundown on how wiz through Agisoft’s Photoscan and generate a model. If you’d like a more in-depth piece, I suggest Heinrich Mallison and Oliver Wing’s paper in Journal of... Continue Reading →
