Setting the start/end time of POSPac Processing

This procedure applies to users running POSPac Desktop (Classic) processing and is not applicable to POSPacCloud or DGaaS sensors. LP360 Drone will attempt to automatically set the start/end time of POSPac sensor trajectory processing based on the kinematic motion of the sensor. This works in the vast majority of cases. However, there are times where…

LP360 msi can’t be Downloaded Securely

My browser reports the LP360 installer as “msi can’t be downloaded securely” when attempting to download from the LP360 installers page. You can proceed with an unsecure download of the LP360 installer to get by the “msi can’t be downloaded securely” by explicitly telling it to proceed in your browser. For instance on Chrome: If…

Creating dz Images

Relative vertical accuracy, or flight line offsets, or the swath-to-swath fit between flight lines or drive passes can be qualitatively assessed using dz images. Or quantitatively assessed by exporting and analyzing the values. The USGS LiDAR Base Specification has evolved over the years with some different recommendations for evaluating interswath (overlap) consistency, and there are…

Error Updating Project Catalog

Attempting to save an LP360 project results in “An error occurred updating the Project Catalog with Project:”, followed by “Detail: Error: Unable to open Projects File. Project not added to list. C:\ProgramData\LP360\PMProjects.json”. The global projects file, “%ProgramData%\LP360\PMProjects.json”, used by the LP360 Project Manager was created with administrator permissions when LP360 or TrueView EVO first launched…

TrueView Training Event: Part 4

During our March TrueView Training event, we recorded the training session with the presenter to have the training material available on demand. Since the training covers two days of various topics we have broken the event down into smaller pieces. This session covers model key points, deliverables such as contours, exporting data, uploading to Reckon,…

Building Filter and Extraction for dense datasets

Some LP360 Point Cloud Tasks (PCT’s) were originally designed for older manned lidar datasets, which have significantly lower point density than modern sUAS datasets. TrueView and other sUAS sensors have the capability of producing much denser point clouds, so these processes can take much longer if running on the entire dataset. A common strategy and workflow…
