Level of quality for pictures

(Can't find back the previous discussions beyond the GT CNIG Cryptpad so I'm creating an issue here)

In order to offer a better re-usability for our pictures, we may characterize their level of quality. Something like a score for each picture (and sequence ?) of quality, with 5 levels (like Nutriscore) :

image

It could be split into sub-scores.

Positioning score

How precisely the picture is positioned :

  • A : <= 1m (RTK)
  • B : <= 2m (DGPS)
  • C : <= 5m (hiking GPS)
  • D : <= 10m (smartphone GPS)
  • E : > 10m (very bad)

Image resolution score

How precise the picture is (in terms of resolution) (updated 9/10/2024) :

Score Flat pic (70° FOV) 360 pic
A Can't be A >= 33MP
B >= 33MP >= 8MP
C >= 8MP < 8MP
D >= 2MP Can't be D
E < 2MP Can't be E

Any field of view between flat and 360° (partial panoramas, wide-angle flat pictures) will have a proportional resolution requirement.

Note : this score could evolve in the future to also qualify its readability (contrast, light...).

General score

General score is a mix of both positioning and resolution scores. The formula is :

round(res*2/3+gps/3)

(With A-score = 5, E-score = 1)

Examples :

Res GPS Overall
A A A
A E B
C A B
D C B
E D E
