WebODM Generate maps, point clouds and textured 3D models from drone images

WebODM

A free, user-friendly, extendable application and API for drone image processing. Generate georeferenced maps, point clouds and textured 3D models from aerial images. It usesOpenDroneMap for processing.

Getting Started

The quickest way to get started is by using Docker.

From the Docker Quickstart Terminal (windows / OSX) or from the command line (linux) type: git clone https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/WebODM cd WebODM pip install docker-compose docker-compose up If you're on Windows/OSX, find the IP of your Docker machine by running this command from your Docker Quickstart Terminal: docker-machine ip

Linux users can connect to 127.0.0.1.

Open a Web Browser to http://<yourDockerMachineIp>:8000 Log in with the default credentials: "admin:admin" Run it natively

If you want to run WebODM natively, you will need to install:

PostgreSQL (>= 9.5) PostGIS 2.3 Python 3.5

On Linux, make sure you have:

apt-get install binutils libproj-dev gdal-bin

On Windows use the OSGeo4W installer to install GDAL.

Then these steps should be sufficient to get you up and running:

git clone https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/WebODM

Create a WebODM\webodm\local_settings.py file containing:

DATABASES = { 'default': { 'ENGINE': 'django.contrib.gis.db.backends.postgis', 'NAME': 'webodm_dev', 'USER': 'postgres', 'PASSWORD': 'postgres', 'HOST': 'localhost', 'PORT': '5432', } }

Then:

pip install -r requirements.txt npm install -g webpack npm install webpack chmod +x start.sh && ./start.sh

If you are getting a rt_raster_gdal_warp: Could not create GDAL transformation object for output dataset creation , make sure that your PostGIS installation has PROJ support:

SELECT PostGIS_Full_Version();

You may also need to set the environment variable PROJSO to the .so or .dll projection library your PostGIS is using. This just needs to have the name of the file. So for example on Windows, you would in Control Panel -> System -> Environment Variables add a system variable called PROJSO and set it to libproj.dll (if you are using proj 4.6.1). You'll have to restart your PostgreSQL service/daemon after this change. http://postgis.net/docs/manual-2.0/RT_ST_Transform.html

Mission Planner API Documentation Android Mobile App iOS Mobile App Processing Nodes Volunteer Network Unit Testing Terminology Project : A collection of tasks (successfully processed, failed, waiting to be executed, etc.) Task : A collection of input aerial images and an optional set of output results derived from the images, including an orthophoto, a georeferenced model and a textured model. A Task 's output is processed by OpenDroneMap. ProcessingNode : An instance usually running on a separate VM, or on a separate machine which accepts aerial images, runs OpenDroneMap and returns the processed results (orthophoto, georeferenced model, etc.). Each node communicates with WebODM via a lightweight API such asnode-OpenDroneMap. WebODM manages the distribution of Task to different ProcessingNode instances. ImageUpload : aerial images. Mission : A flight path and other information (overlap %, angle, ...) associated with a particular Task .
