Hi - Could someone help on the best workflow for matching a camera to an image (landscape)? - if I have a set of surveyed X,Y,Z coordinates (spots on buildings/lamp posts etc.) within the view - and the X,Y,Z coordinates for the camera location?
I have a set of surveyed coordinates (marked as 2 cones pointing up and down to that point - so that they are easy to see in the render), that have been imported into 3DS Max via Autocad Map 3D.
I would like to match the camera location to the coordinates it was taken at - and then the view to match the surveyed coordinates - so that the 3D space matches the Photo view exactly - allowing the import of a building model for a photomontage.
I'm making the move to 3DS Max from Rhino, as I'm already using Autocad and Map 3D. Previously I've set the X,Y, Z coordinates (same method with cones) and camera location, then tweaked the camera in Rhino until I get the everything in line.
Searching seems to bring up the camera matching utility. I'm struggling to find a starting point for this method.
Thanks in advance..
