Herndon, Virginia— March 11, 2024 — Skyline Software Systems Inc. is excited to announce the release of PhotoMesh 8.0.3. This version offers improvements in output quality, compatibility, and performance. Highlights of this release include:
- Enhanced True Orthophoto Quality: Improved photo selection process for True Orthophotos provides more consistent texturing in dynamic scenarios (such as changing shadows, moving vehicles, and vegetation variations). This update also features sharper edges and enhanced clarity.
- Enhanced Quick Orthophoto Quality: Improved algorithms for better handling of break lines enhance the quality of Quick Orthophotos.
- Improved Support for Close-Range Modeling: Leverages the Depth Anything AI algorithm to focus more precisely on target elements. This release also features improved handling of close-range data collections in limited coverage areas and other challenging scenarios, boosting aerotriangulation success rates.
- Enhanced Vertical Datum Transformation Support: The PhotoMesh 8.0.3 installation kit now comes equipped with an extensive collection of Grid Shift Files (GTX, GSB, TIFF). These files enhance the software’s ability to perform precise vertical datum transformations by providing elevation correction values, ensuring more accurate height measurements across various geographic coordinate systems.
- Fixes for 3D Tiles Output Format: Enhanced support for the 3D Tiles 1.0 format, ensuring greater compatibility across various 3D viewers.
- Stability Improvements for Large Project Production: Enhanced stability boosts processing efficiency for larger projects.
- Optimized Production Time: Reconstruction algorithm optimizations reduce production times across various scenarios by up to 20%.
