RIEGL VZ600i

Can't you run a batch process on it therough Irfanview or other? I presume these pictures are still in the same folder at each scan (SCANPOSIMAGES) as with a vz400i? Or is the structure of files reorganized with this 600i?

We can check it out, but the internal VZ600i camera is different in the number of images as indicated below.

Here are 3 images from a single location derived from RiSCAN PRO using a gamma correction of 1.5 using IrFanView 4.62 X64 version. Still need to figure out how the batch mode works and whether it will work by importing the images back into RiSCAN PRO directly.

I took your suggestion, and it worked, thank you very much.

This morning at 4:40AM HST, I discussed the work flow with Riegl USA's fabulous support person, Ms Blyte Babin to see if she could get it to work on a project with similar problems with our SAMS project. Riegl USA is fortunate to have staff like Blyte since she knows the system very well (it seems sometimes better than the folks in another country) and has the ability to communicate it in local USA English with visual workflows. She finished the test with a 12 page printed email describing what needed to be done at 9:40AM HST.

Mr. Raymond Sandla, our 3D Imaging Project Manager, took the work flow and created an IMPROVED image test of 5 scan positions (180 images, using the batch format to use the gamma correction of 2.2, and the rotation of images into the correct orientation). I then replaced the dark exposed images with the gamma 2.2 images in the RiSCAN PRO folder.

What you see below are screen shots of scan positions 003-to-007, RiPANO SP004 (location of the photograph of Josh Steinert and myself), and RiPANO SP007 (location of the other test images shown earlier).

So thank you again, Lieven for your suggestion, we collectively figured out how improve the imaging on a VZ600i, but we still do know know what happened to generate the problem.

Irfanview is one very strong piece of software. I use it all the time for these kind of things. Especially it's batch import.

And it's free.

Another Blyte Babin fix that someone in the other country has backwards.

You need to turn the "LIGHT SWITCH ON".... why is it not on already so the floor is not dark. I guess it it only for interior scans, since the outdoor scans you do not need to deal with the light switch??? in RiSCAN PRO. If you check above with the RiPANO, the floors are not dark, only with the OCTREE processed point clouds. I guess in some countries the sun is always shining outdoors.

We use Irfanview quite a bit to mass reduce the resolution of folders full of field photos of storm drain features for attaching in GIS data sets
