Images and/or GCPs are not positioned correctly on the Map View - PIX4Dmapper

 

Error Description: Images and/or GCPs do not lay at the correct position on the 2D Map. When importing in a project, images with geolocation (known coordinates) or GCPs (points with known coordinates) don't show the expected position on the 2D View.

There are two possible causes for this issue:

  • The image and/or GCP input coordinates are not correct.
  • The image and/or GCP selected coordinate system are not correct.

This article highlights a few of the most common solutions to aid the invalid position of the images and GCPs on the 2D View.

Verify if the image and/or GCP input coordinates are not correct.

  1. Check that the coordinates are correct.
  2. Check that the image geolocation file and/or the GCP georeference file have been correctly imported. For more information about the:
