QGIS Distribution for MAPIR Cameras

This repository contains the QGIS distribution for use with MAPIR cameras. The distribution is in a beta stage while we work on getting it placed in the QGIS plugin repository.

Camera supported:

Functionality for above supported cameras includes:

  • Convert Survey2 RAW to TIFF, converts DJI DNG to TIFF
  • Calibrate directory of images using MAPIR Reflectance Target image taken before survey or uses built-in reflectance values if no target image supplied
  • Converts TIFF to JPG after calibration if desired

Functionality still in the works:

  • Correcting vignette
  • Normalizing color (RGB) photos
  • Creating index images

Installation

  • Whe hope to have the plugin added to the QGIS plugin repository, but until then, please download the MAPIR_Processing folder and add it to you .qgis2/python/plugins folder
  • In Windows, the .qgis2 folder is in C:\Users<your user name>
  • In MacOS X, plugins folder is located in Application/QGIS.app/contents/Resources/python/plugins. To get there you'll need to right click the QGIS application then click "Show Package Contents"

Using Plugin

  • To pre-process images (convet RAW images to TIFFs): -- Select the "Pre-Process" tab -- Select a camera model -- Select an input folder -- Select an output folder -- Press the "Pre-Process Images" button

  • To Calibrate images -- Select the "Calibrate" tab -- Select a camera model -- Select a MAPIR ground target image (optional) -- Press the "Generate Calibration Values" button -- Select a folder containing images to calibrate -- Press the "Calibrate Images From Directory" button
