What's the use of order.txt file?

Hi, I am trying to use DPSNet to generate depth map of my dataset, I have used colmap to get the sfm results, but I found the order.txt was needed if I used test_ETH3D.py. What is the meaning of order.txt? How can I generate it?
Thanks

The order file indicates the frame number in order of the frame which shares the most view point.
It will be utilized to select the pair image to be matched

Hi sunghoon, how do you generate the order.txt, I guess it is generated by Colmap's feature matcher?
