 Without any parameter tweaks, ODM chooses a good compromise between quality, speed and memory usage. If you want to get higher quality results, you need to tweak some parameters:
 
  * ``--orthophoto-resolution`` is the resolution of the orthophoto in cm/pixel. Decrease this value for a higher resolution result.
- * ``--ignore-gsd`` is a flag that instructs ODM to skip certain memory and speed optimizations that directly affect the orthophoto. Using this flag will increase runtime and memory usage, but may produce sharper results.
  * ``--texturing-data-term`` should be set to `area` in forest areas.
  * ``--mesh-size`` should be increased to ``300000-600000`` and ``--mesh-octree-depth`` should be increased to ``10-11`` in urban areas to recreate better buildings / roofs.
