Hi Stefan,
Sorry - but was unable to respond to your PM directly (not allowed to as a new user, apparently!).
I generated the contour plots by using Photoscan (pro version) to export a DEM as a geotiff. I then imported this into QGIS as a raster layer and used the Raster > Extract > Contour function to generate the contours, which are saved as a separate .shp file. I haven't attempted to use ground controls so far, as my total station is currently out of action. I will be doing an evaluation sometime over the next couple of weeks using a combination of surveyed ground controls, photogrammetry and aerial imagery; I'll post the results when (and if!) I get them.
Best,
Kevin
