✏️ Job Creation
In the main window of Marso, the topmost panel is used to create new jobs.
Before continuing, make sure you have selected an Exposure and Light System.
To create a new job you will need to enter:
Job Name: A descriptive name that will be used to identify the scan throughout processing and once the results are ready. e.g Blue_Leather_Handbag
| Info |

Letters, numbers, hyphens, and underscores are allowed. Do not use special characters. Names do not need to be unique. |
Raw FilesImages Folder: Specify the path to the raw images from the scan to be processed.
Raw Images Extension: Select from the list of supported file formats found in the Raw Images Folder.

Marso can only ingest camera |
Light System: Describes the relative position of the lights to the camera. These are presets that can be re-used for different jobs if the same scanning setup is being used. See Calibration Section for more information.
Click Create to add the new job to the job list.
A confirmation will be displayed for you to check the number of images, the extension, and the images directory.

If the number if images is '0', then you may have the wrong Exposure selected. |
📷 Image Preparation
The photography must initially be prepared for photogrammetry. It is essential to use the photogrammetry images generated by Marso to ensure consistency with the processing data.
A job with Status NEW requires preparation, as indicated by the Images button being disabled when selected. To begin the preparation process it must first be queued by selecting the job and clicking Queue.
Once there are jobs in the queue the Start button becomes available
This will begin the preparation process on the first job in the queue.
The controls in the lower right can then be used to Pause a running job, returning it to the front of the queue, or Stop it entirely.
If you have multiple scans to process these can be additionally queued up, and they will begin processing once the current has finished.
When a job completes it will drop back into the Available list with the status DO SOLVE. The job is now ready for Photogrammetry.
