When I process this model (see image) in Drone2Map, it keeps throwing the error "Not enough tracks!" Has anyone else encountered this or a similar error? If so, how did you resolve it?

Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to point me in the right direction.

not enough tracks error

Here is my track:

Track was flown with Pix4DCapture. Settings are:

*55% overlap

*85 degree angle

*Fast speed

*50 metres altitude

The report showed some error, maybe this has something to do with the cause?

I tried creating an orthomosaic with automatic resolution. For the initial processing, the settings were on:

*Rapid (for keypoints)

*Aerial Grid or Corridor (for matching image pairs)

*Automatic targeted number of keypoints

*"WGS_1984_UTM_Zone_17N" coordinate system with Vertical Reference "EGM 96"

3 of 81 images calibrated means 78 images are not being used.

Please check your image altitude (Z values) in a few of the images.  I expect you likely have an error in the image heights - this is a common issue with some DJI drones.  If the height above ground appears too high, the software does not have the correct overlap.  

Drone2Map has a function to adjust this

Note for future flights I would recommend 70% overlap, not 55%
