Reality Mesh AT Block Import

Context Capture Editor supported the tech-preview for importing a reality mesh AT block exported from context capture. As CCeditor is no longer supported, it would be great to have this functionality available in Descartes.

Crop surface

Add option to trim/cut surface by curve tool to actually cut surface/shape and not create two surfaces by cut. Similar as region tool allows in 2D to keep intersection between two shapes but in 3D. Also keep shape elements as shape and don't conve...

Facade verticality report

Provide tools to report facade verticality difference survey. Could be similar to Volume calculation tool.

Extract elevation point (plane)

Allow use extract elevation points in any view not only Top.Idea would be to use extract elevation points by providing custom plane so to annotate difference from plane. For example report vertical slant for facades.

Publish Merge raster resolution unit cm

Add support for resolution units in cm for TIFF export using publish:merge tool. Unable to set exact pixel size in cm if DPI is used as calculation may not be exact.

Publish Merge tool geolocation

Do not add rotation in GEOTIFF or sister files for merging to raster if view is not Top view. If merging facade from reality mesh then sister file is needed to have correct scale(DPI is not helping much for metric) but rotation is wrong as sister ...

Generalize orthogonal

Improve generalize tool to fit orthogonal shapes. For example vectorizing reality meshes or rasters with building outlines. Douglas-Pecker doesn't try to create straight angles.

Import KML & KMZ

It would be very useful to allow the import of KML and KMZ vectors. I am aware of the proposed work around in Sketchup, however, this is an arduous task for multiple files and drawings.

Name photogroup by folder

Managing flights and cameras by folder is important for keeping photogroups separate, it'd be great if there was a checkbox or option to name the photogroup automatically by the folder's name.

Surveys - sort images by capture timestamp and photogroup options

large image datasets can be difficult to manage in the survey tab. Being able to sort the thumbnails by timestamp and by photogroup would help when trying to find appropriate images to use for the selected survey point.
