Pix4D Quality Report for Version 4.6.4

The quality report summarizes the results of processing aerial images to create a 3D model. It provides details on the camera used, image overlap and coverage of the area, results of calibrating the camera and matching features between images, and assessments of uncertainties and reprojection errors. Key metrics like number of images, tie points, and 3D points are included, along with visualizations of camera positions, overlaps, and matching densities.

Red and yellow areas indicate low overlap for which poor results may be generated. Green areas indicate an overlap of over 5 images for every
pixel. Good quality results will be generated as long as the number of keypoint matches is also sufficient for these areas (see Figure 5 for
keypoint matches).

[m]
Min Error and Max Error represent geolocation error intervals between -1.5 and 1.5 times the maximum accuracy of all the images. Columns X,
Y, Z show the percentage of images with geolocation errors within the predefined error intervals. The geolocation error is the difference between
the initial and computed image positions. Note that the image geolocation errors do not correspond to the accuracy of the observed 3D points.
