Add Images From Custom Input Type (Oriented Imagery)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Adds images to an oriented imagery dataset from the input data defined by a custom input type.

Usage

  • The tool uses custom input types, implemented in Python, to define how complex or nonstandard metadata and images will be added to an oriented imagery dataset.

    The Python module must be in a folder with the same name as the module. Place the folder in [InstallDirectory]\Resources\OrientedImagery\CustomInputTypes to list the type in the Custom Input Type parameter drop-down menu. If the input type folder is in a different location, select the Folder option, and provide the folder location in the Custom Input Type Folder parameter.

  • To automate data management workflows or to work with nonstandard imagery frequently and to simplify the data management processes, define a custom input type for the data. Then use the tool to add images to an oriented imagery dataset.

  • The tool is an alternative to the Add Images To Oriented Imagery Dataset tool, which creates a .csv file with the imagery metadata in the oriented imagery table schema to add images to an oriented imagery dataset.
