<p>Hi all,</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>As of this morning, the python-port branch has been merged with the main branch. Here are the biggest changes:</p>
<ul>
<li>run.pl has been replaced with run.py</li><li>OpenSfM has been added as the default bundling tool. <br>
</li><li>new runtime parameters have been added (see <a id="LPlnk857522" href="https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/OpenDroneMap/wiki/3.-Run-Time-Parameters">
https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/OpenDroneMap/wiki/3.-Run-Time-Parameters</a>)</li><li>uses k-nearest neighbors to speed up matching</li><li>general speed improvements and bug fixes<br>
</li></ul>
<p>There is one large caveat to this update: support for Ubuntu 12.04 is temporarily suspended as we work out some compatibility issues. FYI, the last commit before adding python support was <a id="LPlnk252518" href="https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/OpenDroneMap/commit/57b3bfe3e34f77e546be0fd88c38d278a50ad277">https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/OpenDroneMap/commit/57b3bfe3e34f77e546be0fd88c38d278a50ad277</a>
