Survey data can be used to increase the accuracy of camera solves, solve cameras that have zero parallax and solve different cameras in a matching scene layout. Survey data can be obtained by traditional surveying with a Total Station, scanning with LIDAR or shooting reference frames for photogrammetry.
Camera tracking software normally works by 2D tracking features in an image sequence. Using a photogrammetry algorithm it then estimates the 3D coordinates of these features. The camera is then solved based on the relationship of these coordinates. Using survey data is different. Instead of having the algorithm estimate the position of a 3D coordinate you simply tell the software where it is. If your survey data is accurate it will provide you with a better camera solve than estimation alone. Survey data and software estimation techniques can be combined.
Total Station
Survey data collected by a skilled surveyor with a Total Station is extremely accurate. However, this data is less convenient to correlate with production plates because it is a low density point cloud.
LIDAR
LIDAR scans provide excellent accuracy and a high density point cloud. In order to maximize usefulness in a visual effects pipeline the point cloud should be meshed.
Photogrammetry
Photogrammetry can be used to create a low or medium density point cloud of a set. This point cloud can be meshed. A large number of photographs are required and photogrammetry is generally less accurate than LIDAR or Total Stations.
Reference Frames
Reference frames are used to give the camera solving algorithm more parallax. Reference frames are photographs of the set taken from angles different from the plate camera. These photos must have overlapping coverage of the features being 2D tracked. They can include DSLR photos, videos and witness cameras. Reference images can also be taken of specific objects or props to assist in object tracking.

WHAT IS FILM BACK AND WHY DO I NEED TO KNOW?
“Film back” is common terminology for the dimensions of a film frame’s or electronic sensor’s imaging area. Focal length is the optical magnification power of a lens. The field of view (FOV) (aka angle of view or viewing frustum angle) will be different on cameras with the same film back sizes using lenses of different focal lengths. The FOV will also be different if the cameras use lenses with the same focal lengths, but have different film back sizes. FOV is determined by the relationship between film back and focal length.
In the discipline of 3D camera tracking the best camera solves are generated when the artist inputs the actual lens focal length and camera film back size used. With these two variables the software can accurately calculate the FOV of a recorded frame. If you only know one variable (or neither) the software will calculate an inaccurate solve. Leaving the artist to do a lot of time consuming guess work.
The focal length is generally easy to obtain. It is printed on the barrel of the lens and is normally written down in logs by a camera assistant. Focal length is usually also collected by a visual effects department member if they are present on set. The film back size is not always as easy to obtain. When images are acquired on film the film back size is determined by the film format being used. There are a limited number of acquisition film formats and they are standardized. Digital cameras do not use standardized sensor sizes. The size of a sensor, and more importantly what portion of it is used to record an image, is rarely published by camera manufacturers. When manufacturers do describe the size of their sensors it is usually in comparison to a film format, not the exact dimensions. Some cameras also change the area of their sensor that is used when recording different resolutions. This change is generally referred to as crop factor. Those digital cameras have different effective film back sizes for different formats and this must be accounted for when solving a camera track.

Field of view describes how much of the 3D scene a virtual camera sees. You must know the focal length and film back size so that the correct field of view can be calculated. With the correct field of view a tracked cube in your footage will generate a rectilinear point cloud of a cube in your 3D scene. Exactly matching the cube’s real world proportions. With the wrong field of view the cube will be squashed or stretched. Therefore, not an accurate 3D reconstruction of the photographed object.
HOW DO SOFTWARE PACKAGES EXCHANGE CAMERA DATA?
Most software packages exchange camera information as field of view (FOV). Expressed as a horizontal (most common), vertical or diagonal angle.

Anamorphic lenses allow a widescreen picture to fit in a normal frame without letterboxing. This is accomplished by optically squeezing the image horizontally. While technically unnecessary today, filmmakers continue to use anamorphic lenses for their cinematic aesthetic.
Anamorphic images stay squeezed throughout the entire visual effects pipeline. For convenience they are displayed as unsqueezed in most software packages, but this is only superficial.
The squeezing is defined by the image’s pixel aspect ratio. The standard pixel aspect ratio is 1.0 (square). The most common anamorphic pixel aspect ratio is 2.0. For anamorphic shots the virtual camera’s film back width is multiplied by the pixel aspect ratio. This is usually around double, as in the case of CinemaScope (2.0).
CinemaScope 35 mm film (2K scan):
Squeezed (actual) = 1828 x 1556
Unsqueezed (display) = 3656 x 1556
Physical film back = 21.936 mm x 18.672 mm
Virtual film back = 43.872 mm x 18.672 mm
