[OpenDroneMap-users] Cloud Processing (Stephen Mather)

[Stephen Mather]

That's great advice. Would you be willing to add a section on the wiki for
cloud processing for nubes to Amazon like me (and others)? Given how
intensive the data processing is for ODM, I think the addition would be
really useful.

Best,
Steve
