| | 7 | |
| | 8 | A given rig session will yield |
| | 9 | * A number of cameras with ~1000 images. Each image will have a timestamp. File names may not be unique across cameras. |
| | 10 | * A GPS log file with a sequence of timestamped waypoints. |
| | 11 | |
| | 12 | We'll need to develop an '''image collector''' program (python/Linux?). |
| | 13 | This will first read in the GPS log file. |
| | 14 | Then you'll connect the various cameras, one at a time, to USB, |
| | 15 | and it will download their images. |
| | 16 | The outputs: |
| | 17 | |
| | 18 | * A directory of all the images, with unique filenames. |
| | 19 | * An 'image index' file, one line per image. For each image: |
| | 20 | ** time |
| | 21 | ** lat/long |
| | 22 | ** filename |
| | 23 | ** estimated size factor (meters/pixel) |
