DISTORTION.TXT

Description

DISTORTION.TXT is read by distortion. This file contains initial guesses at the values for the camera model (K matrix and distortion), various sigmas, and a list of .REG files that will be used to compute the distortion model. The first five lines contain information about the distortion model, the last line is an END, and the intervening lines are a list of .REG files you wish to use.
