When importing an existing COLMAP model into Volinga Suite, you'll need to provide the following files:
- Images File (*.bin or *.txt): The images.bin or images.txt file generated during COLMAP camera alignment that contains camera pose information.
- Cameras File (*.bin or *.txt): The cameras.bin or cameras.txt file from COLMAP camera alignment that defines intrinsic camera parameters.
- Points3D File (*.bin or *.txt): The points3d.bin or points3d.txt file containing the sparse point cloud generated during COLMAP camera alignment.
- Images Folder: The directory path containing all original images used to create the COLMAP model.
These files together provide the complete camera registration and sparse reconstruction data needed to properly initialize your 3D scene in Volinga Suite. By importing COLMAP models, you can also leverage camera alignments coming from other tools supporting COLMAP exports like Reality Capture or Metashape
