MAP-Tk v0.8.1 Release Notes

This release provides patches to the MAP-Tk v0.8.0 release to address issues.
MAP-Tk v0.8.1 is a bug fix release with no new functionality.

Fixes since v0.8.0

Core Plugin

  • In the core triangulation algorithm, landmarks that were not observed by
    enough cameras or had no corresponding tracks were not counted towards the
    number of failed triangulations. Now they are.

VXL Plugin

  • Updated the CMake code for using VXL to handle changes in VXL master so that
    MAP-Tk can build against the latest VXL. The latest VXL master uses
    VXL_CORE_INCLUDE_DIRS instead of VXL_CORE_INCLUDE_DIR to specify multiple
    include directories (e.g. in source and build trees). This is needed to
    find configured headers that are in the build tree. The same is true for
    VXL_VCL_INCLUDE_DIRS. MAP-Tk has been fixed to use *_INCLUDE_DIRS when
    available.

MAP-Tk GUI

  • Failing to parse a config block in the GUI was not reporting any message.
    The GUI now catches config exception and prints a warning message. This
    is a temporary solution until a proper error dialog is implemented.
  • Fixed an issue with the ground plane disappearing after loading data that
    did not include landmarks. The ground plane now uses the cameras for scale
    when only cameras are in the world view and no longer disappears when the
    only data loaded is in the image view.

Tools

  • Fixed an issue with converting POS filenames to KRTD in the pos2krtd tool.
    When producing the KRTD filenames from the POS file names, the pos2krtd
    tool was being too aggressive about striping file extensions when more
    than one '.' was in the file name. In this release the tool strips the
    extension at the last '.' instead of the first.

Scripts

  • Fixed a bug in the SketchUp import script was loading MAP-Tk data assuming
    units of inches instead of meters.
  • Worked around an issue in the SketchUp import script in which SketchUp was
    limiting the FOV of cameras to greater than 1 degree. The loading script
    now adjusts the image width and focal length parameter to force FOV less
    than 1 degree when needed.
  • The SketchUp import script now loads MAP-Tk landmarks into a new layer.
