Export to MVE (Multi-View Environment)

---

MVE <https://github.com/simonfuhrmann/mve>_ can import a converted openMVG SfM scene and use it to create dense depth map and complete dense 3D models.

.. code-block:: c++

Convert the openMVG SfM scene to the MVE format

$ openMVG_main_openMVG2MVE -i Dataset/outReconstruction/sfm_data.bin -o Dataset/outReconstruction

Export to MVS Texturing

If you don't want to use the full MVE pipeline but only MVS Texturing <https://github.com/nmoehrle/mvs-texturing>_ [Waechter2014]_ to project a set of oriented images on a mesh, one solution is to use the openMVG_main_openMVG2MVSTEXTURING binary. This binary converts your SfM_Data file into one format used by MVS Texturing. In addition, you may need to undistort your images with openMVG_main_ExportUndistortedImages as it's not handled by the openMVG_main_openMVG2MVSTEXTURING tool.
