16.29. icebridge_kmz_to_csvΒΆ

A simple tool for use with data from the NASA IceBridge program. Google Earth compatible .kmz files are available at http://asapdata.arc.nasa.gov/dms/missions.html which display the aircraft position at the point when each DMS frame image was captured. This tool exports those positions into a csv file which can be passed into bundle_adjust using the following parameters:

--camera-positions ../camera_positions.csv --csv-format "1:file 2:lon 3:lat 4:height_above_datum"

This may be useful in conjunction with the camera_solve tool to allow conversion of camera positions from local to global coordinates.

Usage:

> icebridge_kmz_to_csv <input kmz file> <output csv file>
