**Can I process two or more orthophoto GeoTIFFs to stitch them together?**

No. ODM is a photogrammetric pipeline and orthophotos do not have the necessary camera information since the images have already been orthorectified. You can use another program such as `Hugin <http://hugin.sourceforge.net/>`_ to do that.

Yes. The software tries to use all available resources, when possible, but not always. It's normal to see 10-15% CPU utilization at several moments during processing and 0% GPU utilization for lots of times.

If I use the native version of the software, how can I allocate more resources for processing?
**I want to build a commercial application that includes ODM. Do I need a commercial license?**

ODM is free and open source software, released under the `AGPLv3 <https://github.com/OpenDroneMap/ODM/blob/master/LICENSE>`_. You are free to build and sell applications with it, just make sure to comply with the requirements of the license, in particular the disclose source requirement.

Are there other licensing options aside from the AGPLv3?

1. First you can buy more RAM, this is the ultimate and final solution.

2. Alternatively you can resize the images when uploading and/or tweak your quality settings.

* We keep a `section in our forum dedicated to research papers <http://community.opendronemap.org/c/ideas-proposals/research-papers>`_. This is a valuable place where to read more about state of the art research related to structure from motion, multi-view stereo, meshing, texturing, etc. which can be used to improve the software.
