Drone2Map .txt or .csv layout and format?

thudson — Fri, 14 Oct 2022 12:40:12 GMT

Hi I am new to Drone2Map and am trying to learn how to use the GCP's. I have tried to find a website or video with an example on how the .csv file should be set up for Drone2Map to recognize it [e.g. number, lat., long., z], but haven't had any luck yet. I've tried several different combinations and have converted the coordinates to match D2M (WGS 1984) but still getting an error every time I try to upload the file.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi, I get my GCP's in CSV format looking like this (UTM WKID:25832)

Punkt;X;Y;Z
04;577571.729;6620514.436;127.153

Only slightly annoying issue is the resulting import gives the point-id ("punkt"-attribute from the above example) hitten in the TAG attribute in the Control attribute-table

So if I want the ID used as a Label in the map (which i like during GCP registration) I have to make a label expression like (in this example): Mid($feature.Tag,10,2)
