SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Dense reconstruction after image alignment is a complex, time-consuming process that this Skill automates within Metashape MCP, streamlining the production of dense outputs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Builds depth maps, dense point clouds, meshes, and textures with GPU-accelerated workflows.
  • Generates DEMs and orthomosaics from dense data, with configurable quality settings.
  • Ensures deterministic, non-polling MCP tool calls and proper saves after major steps.

Quick Start

Pass an aligned Metashape project to the MCP dense reconstruction workflow and execute depth map, point cloud, mesh, texture, and DEM/orthomosaic steps in order.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate dense reconstruction in Metashape after image alignment?

Dense reconstruction in Metashape is automated by passing an aligned project to the MCP workflow, which sequentially executes depth map, dense point cloud, mesh, texture, and DEM/orthomosaic generation with explicit GPU/CPU configuration.

What is the process for generating an orthomosaic and DEM from dense point clouds?

Generating an orthomosaic and DEM from dense point clouds involves executing stepwise MCP tool calls within Metashape, validating prerequisites first and saving progress after each major dense data operation completes.

Can I configure GPU and CPU usage for Metashape depth maps and mesh generation?

Yes, Metashape dense reconstruction workflows support explicit GPU and CPU configuration, allowing you to optimize processing for depth maps, dense point clouds, meshes, and textures during automated MCP tool calls.

What's the best way to ensure deterministic Metashape MCP tool calls during photogrammetry processing?

Ensuring deterministic Metashape MCP tool calls requires using an automated workflow that enforces stepwise execution, validates prerequisites before each stage, and saves project progress immediately after major operations.

Do I need an already aligned Metashape project before starting dense point cloud generation?

Yes, you need an aligned Metashape project as a prerequisite, because dense point cloud generation, meshing, and texture application workflows validate prior alignment before executing any reconstruction steps.

Why does my Metashape texture or mesh generation workflow fail midway through processing?

Metashape texture or mesh generation fails when prerequisite steps like image alignment are incomplete, making it necessary to use an automated workflow that validates prerequisites and saves progress after each major step.
