Batch delete photos from a project

yigalm — Sat, 13 May 2023 16:16:04 GMT

A Site Scan project is limited by the number of images it can process.

Sometimes we get larger amount of photos than the software can process.

By loading all the photos we can see the covered area.

I think we should have one of two options:

Select interactively the required area to process (use only selected images)
Batch delete images from the project (enough so that the process can start)

Thanks,

Hi @yigalm , we are looking into increasing the capability of our processing engine to support larger missions, as well as your suggestion of specifying a processing area. If those were implemented, would you still need the ability to batch delete photos?

Hello @dozer

I guess that specifying a processing area can help overcome the need to batch delete photos .

This ability exists in Drone2Map. Sometimes you get few folders of photos and you can't know which area is covered by each folder. You end up loading all the folders, while you actually need only a subset of photos.

Delete image by select from area.

It would be great if Site Scan could allow users to delete multiple photos by selecting them through a drawn area on the map. Currently, when images are displayed on the map, and we wish to remove outliers, we typically need to select the specific names or numbers of the images. This process would be significantly improved if we could select images by drawing an area around the ones we want to delete.

Thanks,

Bulk Image Selection and Deletion

Currently, images must be selected and deleted one at a time, which becomes time‑consuming and inefficient when working with large image sets. Adding the ability to select multiple images and delete them in a single action (such as through checkboxes or multi‑select functionality) would greatly improve workflow efficiency, particularly during data cleanup and quality control tasks.

Hi,
dont disagree this may be be improved, but You are aware the functionality offered through Mission > View Photos?

Yes, I do. What I’m asking is whether they can add a tool or option mass select and delete groups of images when you have hundreds of them, based on their spatial location. Ideally, I’d like to view the image footprints on the map and draw a polygon around an area to select all images within it and delete them at once—without having to open and select each image individually. With large datasets, it’s difficult to know where an image is spatially located when viewing them one by one, and it could be time consuming.
