Developing RC data into workable CAD data

We're starting another chapter now, and we're going to take a look now at how we start to develop our reality capture data, our RC data to workable CAD data. Now our endgame is to end up in AutoCAD with some sort of model file that has come from our raw drone data. So let's take an overview of that workflow. So we started with our drone, our DJI Mini Pro 3 that went out and captured the raw images in a JPEG file format, and the raw video in the MP4 format. We then subsequently took that data from the drone and put it into our reality capture software. So that then went into Autodesk ReCap Photo and Epic Games RealityCapture software. And we looked at both of those and looked at which application might suit specific workflows. And then the endgame is to end up in AutoCAD with models and drawings. So we're looking at 2D drawings in AutoCAD DWG and a 3D model also in an AutoCAD DWG file format. Now that's the workflow right there in front of you in that particular image there. And that's…
