What's New in ContextCapture Center CONNECT Edition Update 19
Leverage the integrated orthophoto touchup tools to improve your orthophoto delivery
- Fix artifacts created by moving objects (e.g., cars) by locally modifying the image contribution
- Fix DSM related artifacts (e.g., building edges) by locally adjusting the projection method
- Fix more complex issues with the orthophoto retouch workflow using third-party applications

Visualize ContextInsights annotation results within the ContextCapture 3D view
- Instant review of 3D segmentation jobs by displaying the output classified point clouds and class filtering enabled
- Display segmented orthophotos for visual assessment of the detection quality (e.g., roof detection).

Benefit from improved topology of building footprints automatically extracted from an annotation job
- Retrieve more accurate extraction of building footprints
- Enjoy lighter deliverables

Enjoy simpler workflows thanks to ContextCapture's new job architecture
- Produce merged ortho-mosaic and merged point cloud exports from a single click.
- Take advantage of the integrated LOD across-tiles generation setting to produce meshes that are optimized for improved streaming performance and web-viewing.
- Benefit from an improved interface response when submitting, updating or cancelling large productions.
- Monitor the progress of the reconstruction and complete QA thanks to the improved reference model that is now displayable in a 3D view.

Improve visual quality with texture replacement on water constraints
- Apply any custom texture on water when original photos are too different, due to high reflectivity of water surfaces
- Or apply a uniform color

And much more ...
- Point cloud export in Orbit native format (OPC).
- Simplified Aerotriangulation wizard.
- "Copy to clipboard" function in the measurement tool.

- Reconstruction: The ExportUniqueMesh tool is replaced by a standalone LOD generation job submitted with the Python SDK.
- Reconstruction: surface constraints can now be textured with a repetitive texture chosen by the user or with a uniform color.
- Production: new job structure and new production interface with milestones
- Production: new OPC output format (Orbit point cloud).
- Production: point cloud merge and orthophoto merge are now available as production settings
- Production: orthophoto/DSM review in ContextCapture Master 3DView
- Misc: long paths are properly supported (project and input data)
- Misc: new tool to check the version and edition of a ContextCapture project
- Misc: orientation metadata in EXIF tags of photos coming from Sensefly and Skydio drones are better used.
- Misc: job cancellation safeguard
- Misc: optimized job queue database performances

- SDK: User tie point & ground control point merge


ContextCapture CONNECT Editionprovides powerful capabilities for integrating and processing reality modeling data in information modeling workflows. The SELECT CONNECT Edition includes SELECT CONNECTservices, new Azure-based services that provide comprehensive learning, mobility, and collaboration benefits to every Bentley application subscriber. Adaptive Learning Services helps users master use of Bentley applications through CONNECT Advisor, a new in-application service that provides contextual and personalized learning. Personal Mobility Services provides unlimited access to Bentley apps, ensuring users have access to the right project information when and where they need it. ProjectWise Connection Services allow users to securely share application and project information, manage and resolve issues, and create, send, and receive transmittals, submittals, and RFIs
ContextCaptureenables you to use ordinary photographs to cost effectively produce 3D models of the most challenging conditions for every infrastructure project. For additional accuracy, adding point clouds from laser scans results in fine details, sharp edges, and geometric precision. You can quickly create and use these highly detailed 3D reality meshes to provide precise real-world context for design, construction, and operations decisions throughout the lifecycle of projects. ContextCapture allows you to reliably and quickly produce 3D models of any scale, from objects measuring a few centimeters to entire cities. The precision of the resulting 3D model is only limited by the image resolution you use.
When creating extremely large models, take advantage of greater computational power withContextCapture Center.It adds the capability to leverage grid computing to dramatically speed processing time by running multiple engines on several computers, and associating them to a single job queue. If you have projects larger than 300 gigapixels of imagery, use ContextCapture Center to seamlessly handle terabytes of input imagery.
