TOP generation with Lidar takes a lot of time
Hi, When using Lidar data within a Reconstruction the "Analysis task" takes a huge amount of time. Sometimes more than 5 days, without seemingly making any progress until it suddenly finishes. I think there might be some problem or bug, when reading the lidar data. Our Lidar datasets are quite large (up to several billions…

16bit Pipeline in RealityStudios enhancement
At the moment RealityStudios produces new 16bit mrf's for every Reconstruction. Which is not manageable (disk space and time) for big projects. In the future we would greatly benefit from the possibility to re-use already converted 16-bit MRFs in subsequent reconstructions, thus avoiding the duplication of large datasets…

Defining the Number of Nodes to Be Used per Process
Certain processing steps generate a very high network load, particularly Image Preparation. We use a total of 24 nodes, which leads to network congestion during image processing. If I were to shut down some of the nodes, I would lose processing capacity that could otherwise be used simultaneously by other projects within…

Average Adjusted Elevations for Water Bodies
Water bodies—except for flowing water—generally form a horizontal plane. The “Get Heights” function in the Edit menu can transfer elevation values from a terrain model to water polygons. It would be helpful to provide an additional option that calculates the mean elevation of a water body and applies it to the entire water…

Polygon List for Water Bodys
Imported water body geometries generally need to be adjusted manually in terms of elevation. Currently, I select the polygons and adjust their elevation using the Move tool. However, there is no way to check whether all polygons have been processed. It would be useful to have a list similar to the one used for GCPs,…

Export True Ortho as 16bit imagery
How can I create 16bit True Ortho tiles. Origin Images are already 16bit but there is no setting in the reconstruction for this type of export.

What should I do if I encounter a CUDA Driver Timeout?
CUDA is a parallel computing platform supported by NVIDIA graphics cards. ArcGIS Reality Studio uses CUDA acceleration to improve the performance of computationally intensive processing tasks. A CUDA Driver Timeout can occur when a GPU operation exceeds the default Windows timeout period. To prevent the operating system…

Know your data - Validating a camera session in ArcGIS Reality Studio
Have you ever struggled to get reliable results from your Reality Mapping projects? In many of the support cases we see, the root cause is not the imagery itself but how the data was added to the project. Often it comes down to a misinterpreted sensor parameter or incorrect orientation information set when the camera…

Add the ability to name output reality products
Hi, It would be helpful to be able to name the product outputs during the wizard, so they are not named with generic names such as 3D_Mesh.slpk. Thanks, marc

🗺️Leverage External Data in ArcGIS Reality Studio
In ArcGIS Reality Studio 2026.1, you can now import external data into your project, bringing new flexibility to how you validate, edit, and collaborate. By adding external data (such as meshes, rasters, or Gaussian splats) you can enrich your spatial context, improve editing precision, and enable teams to work in parallel…

Below bridge imagery issues
Hi there, We have imagery of abridge that we are wanting to process for bridge inspections using ArcGIS Reality studio. Much of this imagery faces upwards. It seems that Reality does not like this and fails on footprint computation. Does Reality support upward facing images? Thanks, Marc

ArcGIS Reality Server Questions
Reposting this because I'm not sure how active the User Forum is for the Early Adopter Program. I'm looking at Reality Server for potential future builds and testing in our development environment and had a couple of questions: - Does Reality Server benefit from GPU acceleration? I noticed that the server requirements…

Gaussians Splats Reality Studio
I’m trying to generate a Gaussian Splats layer in Reality Studio. When I start generating it in the Job Monitor, I get the following message: “One or more jobs include tasks that no current node can process. These jobs may get blocked once processing reaches those tasks.” At first, it seems to start processing, but when it…

Process Faster, Smarter and More Reliably with Distributed Processing
Reality mapping projects are often large and require extensive processing. ArcGIS Reality Studio is designed to scale with your needs. By understanding how processing jobs (such as reconstructions) are structured and distributed, and when to scale your production, you can optimize both time and hardware, delivering your…

ArcGIS Reality with Underwater Data
Hello everyone! Is there a project that uses ArcGIS Reality with underwater data? Multibeam data, sonar data for bathymetry, and images from AUV (Autonomous Underwater Vehicle) equipment. If so, can you point me to documentation (videos, tutorial materials, and what file extensions we can use)? Thank you.

mesh converter in ArcGIS Reality
In ArcGIS Reality version 2025 it is possible to export meshes in different formats, in different coordinate reference systems, etc. If I calculated the mesh using an older version of ArcGIS Reality, I can't import the old project file and export the mesh in other formats. This also doesn't work if I no longer have a…
