PIX4Dcloud processes images based on the project file (.p4d) that is uploaded. The processing options, which were selected beforehand, are applied.

Typical cases when this is useful:

• To customize settings based on specific needs. More information in How to customize the options for processing on PIX4Dcloud.
• To change the processing template of the project. More information in How to customize the options for processing on PIX4Dcloud.
• To use GCPs on PIX4Dcloud. Notice that PIX4Dcloud Advanced users are not required to upload from PIX4Dmapper to use GCPs. More information in AutoGCPs detection functionality.
