If I know the distance to the scene, can I use Monocular with correct scale?

Hey,

Let's say I got a lidar/rangefinder with my camera, can I use it in the Monocular (without the IMU) for the scale (pixel to m technique)? (for example for a drone with a downward camera, and assuming the scene is a plane with equal distance to the camera)

Same question If I know an object with a known size that I can detect in the initialization.

Do I need to use it only on the initialization? I am trying to use this repo and ORB-SLAM2 repo.

Thanks!
