Does anyone use infinity for their processing of aerials?

We have been trying, but it just seems to get to a point when creating the orthophoto where nothing seems to happen.

The uav we are using is a Phantom 4.

I'd be interested in this as well.?ÿ Not sure of whether to go with Pix4D, Leica Inifinity (of which we use a lower tier for general GNSS) or another option.?ÿ Not a trimble family here.?ÿ But same Pahntom 4 setup with RTK (soon!)

As a follow-up to this, I did try out Infinity for processing with decent results.?ÿ We ended up going in another direction, mostly because we don't use hardly any of the really powerful features within Leica Infinity, but rather really only use it for RTK and Static processing.?ÿ?ÿ

Ended up going with the following Hardware and Software:

-DJI Phantom 4 RTK w/ the DJI Base Station (I would've gone with our RTK base, but we got the base as part of a package)

-ESRI Site Scan for processing (uses different engines for processing, but it's Pix4D, essentially)

-Virtual Surveyor (best software we trialed for taking the results from photogrammetry like the DSM, Point Cloud and Orthophoto and translating that into data that you can create a surface with and extract some features.?ÿ?ÿ

I have recently started using Infinity for processing imagery taken with DJI Mavic 2 Pro, and have not had any issues at all. I prefer it to using Agisoft Metashape which is what I have used in the past. I'm running the latest version of Infinity, 3.5.0.

Old thread I know, but seemed the right place. We've been dabbling with Infinity for drone base imagery using a Phantom 4 RTK. I get regular "Failed" processes typically during orthoimagery and DEM generation. Typically using the "Precise" settings. Anyone found a solution to that??ÿ

It seems strange to fail a photogrammetry process as generally the results should be internally consistent, being built on top of the previous processes. The results might not be good, but they should not just "fail".?ÿ
