Data formats on Drone2Map (import and export)

Question

Which data formats can be imported to Drone2Map?

Which data formats are exported from Drone2Map?

K_Rocks · Answer

Following up on Frank's query - so is it correct to say that a Drone2Map export (e.g. scene package or image) cannot be used through ArcGIS Desktop, i.e. ArcMap or ArcScene, but only through the newer generation of the software (e.g. ArcGIS Pro) via ArcGIS Online or Portal for ArcGIS?

It seems strange that you can export an image from Pix4D into a Desktop-compatible geotiff, but not from Esri's own app that's built on the same foundation.

James, how do we bring a scene package into ArcGIS Desktop, Pro, or ArcScene?

Projects can be created using either JPEG or TIFF images.  The products output by Drone2Map can be seen in the Processing Options dialog.

2D Products created:

*  Orthomosaic, DSM, DSM Hillshade, NDVI in TIFF Format
* Image Points and Flight Lines as feature classes

3D Products created:

* A Textured Mesh (Scene Layer Package, OBJ, FBX, DXF, PLY, 3D PDF)
* Point Cloud (LAS, PLY, XYZ)

We will be adding this to the Drone2Map documentation.
