Parameter descriptions

InputText: Input OrthoEngine project file

Specifies the input OrthoEngine project file that contains the camera calibration data to be exported.

Camera Calibration File

Specifies the output XML file that stores the camera calibration information compatible with CAMIMPORT. A DTD file with the same name and a .dtd extension is created at the same time.

If the specified file already exists when CAMEXPORT is called, the function throws an exception.

Details

CAMEXPORT exports the camera calibration parameters to an XML file so that they can be stored and re-used for a particular camera. The XML file is a compatible format that can be imported into other OrthoEngine project files using CAMIMPORT.

CAMEXPORT also exports a DTD file that is related to the XML file. The DTD file validates the XML file and enables it to be read in CAMIMPORT or in an Internet browser.
