      hi!

      Im looking forward to make 3D model of this several industrial buildings, a friend of mine photographed the site with a drone (image #1).

      Can I use the Photo match tool on this type of image? I tried but the blue axis is angled (image #2)

      I appreciate any kind of help or recommendation, thanks! πŸ˜‰

        It won't work well as you can see because of the perspective.

          like Dave said - it's not easy. I gave it a try and got it closer to the photo template - One tip is: the longer you make your adjustment lines, the more accurate you can adjust photomatch
