Configuration

Configuration​

OpenDroneMap is highly configurable, allowing you to customize the processing pipeline and the output products. The main configuration is done through the command-line arguments or a configuration file. Some common configuration settings include:

  • Input Imagery: Specify the directory containing the input aerial imagery or the path to a single image.

  • Output Directory: Set the directory where the processed outputs (e.g., point cloud, orthomosaic, digital surface model) will be stored.

  • Processing Options: Control various processing options, such as the level of detail, the type of 3D reconstruction, the resolution of the orthomosaic, and the generation of additional outputs.

  • Parallelization: Adjust the number of CPU cores or GPUs to be used for parallel processing to optimize the performance.

  • Advanced Settings: Configure advanced parameters, such as the SfM and dense matching algorithms, the camera calibration, and the feature extraction parameters.

You can view the available configuration options by running the following command odm --help
