To help us understand Metashape's photogrammetry workflow, I've got the exercise file sample-set-01-bird.psx open, and you can find that in the folder called sample-set-01-bird, and this will just help us get a visual sense of how we can go through the different stages. So there are two main parts to Metashape's photogrammetry workflow. Those are alignment and meshing. During the alignment phase, we're loading images into Metashape. We might do things like adding helpful info such as image masks that will aid with alignment, and then Metashape finds matching points across multiple images. Those are called tie points. Now, we can see some of the tie points in this example, by clicking on the Point Cloud icon up in the toolbar.
