<p>Here's some answers.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>1) This is untested. It depends on the machine's specs. If errors occur from a large set of images, you can always scale them down. </p>
<p>2) Again, this depends on the photos and the size of the photos. I run tests on a virtual machine with 9 cores and 12 GB RAM, and runtimes can vary from ~15 minutes for ~100 photos at 1200px to ~15 hours for ~600 photos at 2400px. </p>
<p>3) There are usually some artifacts in the orthos, usually found around trees, treelines, and buildings. </p>

<p>This is more or less how the first half of the process works, followed by meshing, texturing, and georeferencing/orthophoto. </p>
<p>5) The software is intended to be an open source photo processing toolchain for aerial photographs. It has many applications, including in agriculture, surveying, disaster response, etc.<br>
