Loading Pitch, Roll, Yaw

[Oswaldo Alejandro Bayona Andrade]

Hello,

I have images that include Pitch, Yaw, Roll metadata in Exif. When I load the images in Hugin, the program does not recognize those data, in the grid it shows zero to those three parameters, then I have to enter them manually. Is there any way to load those metadata, or what format should the image have for Hugin recognize those parameters?

Thanks.

- Allow reading of image positions from Papywizard XML files: (...)

Maybe you already have an external file containing these values?

I'm not aware of a camera that includes y/p/r information, what hardware
do you use to generate these values? A pano bot or some fancy GPS
tracker mounted to the camera using the hot shoe?

More to the point, how is this information encoded into the EXIF data?
I'm pretty sure there's nothing in the standard.

At least Olympus and Pentax cameras with built-in electronic level write
the pitch/roll information in the "maker notes" part of EXIF data. Yaw
detection would need a built-in compass like in Pentax K-3II and K-1.

... and the yaw info should be stored in the GPSImgDirection tag.

Standard? I think all camera manufacturers add their own proprietary
exif tags.

ExifTool comes to the rescue:

<http://u88.n24.queensu.ca/exiftool/forum/index.php/topic,3870.0/all.html>

GPSImageDirection
GPSPitch
GPSRoll

At some point Geoff Mather provides a link to a tutorial he has written:
<http://360.g8dhe.net/cameraattitude/cameraattitude.htm>
which concludes with...

Sorry, but this is not the solution.
 

GPSImageDirection
GPSPitch
GPSRoll

GPSPitch and GPSRoll are specific to Exiftool. Only exiftool can read and write them.
Also you need to add them special to your exiftool config file, to be able to use them.
The plain exiftool does also not handle them.

Thanks a lot, it works

I get those parameters from a drone's log. Then I put this data in the Exif Tag DJI.  http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/TagNames/DJI.html
