Output directory content

The output directory, defined in the configuration file, contains at the end of the computation:

  • the required product levels (depth_map, dsm and/or point_cloud)

  • the dump directory (dump_dir) containing intermediate data for all applications

  • the intermediate resolutions directory (intermediate_res) containing the results (and dump_dir) of all intermediate resolutions

  • metadata json file (metadata.json) containing: used parameters, information and numerical results related to computation, step by step and pair by pair.

  • logs folder (logs) containing CARS log and profiling information

Note

DSMs and point cloud are referenced to the local UTM zone with WGS4 ellipsoid as datum (but you can use another epsg code if you need to {“output”: {“epsg”: MY_EPSG_CODE}}).

If product type dsm is selected, a directory named dsm will be created with the DSM and every auxiliary product selected. The file dsm/index.json shows the path of every generated file. For example :

---
dsm: dsm.tif
texture: image.tif
mask: mask.tif
classification: classification.tif
performance_map: performance_map.tif
contributing_pair: contributing_pair.tif
filling: filling.tif

{
    "dsm": "dsm.tif",
    "texture": "image.tif",
    "mask": "mask.tif",
    "classification": "classification.tif",
    "performance_map": "performance_map.tif",
    "contributing_pair": "contributing_pair.tif",
    "filling": "filling.tif"
}

Note

If performance_map_method in dense matching configuration is a list with more than one element, performance_map.tif will be a 3 dimension raster: each band contains the performance map for each method. Else, it will be a two dimension raster

Note

Edge auxiliary data configured with output.auxiliary.edges are not part of current DSM auxiliary outputs.
