# Enabling and Disabling Images

Colorization time can be reduced by disabling images that won't be needed for colorization. This is escpecially true when colorizing with depth maps, as one depth map must be created for every enabled image, which can add considerable processing time with large data sets. It's also recommended to use intervals to deliberately select which images to use for during camera calibration.&#x20;

It is advisable to **Use Intervals** to disable unneeded imagery, such as imagery recorded during take off/landing, on curves between flight lines, or when grounded (in the case of aerial acquisition). You can also disable images manually by unselecting them with the **checkbox** next to the filename.&#x20;
