How to handle the calibration images?

  • Updated

For drone flights performed with (MicaSense) multi-spectral cameras, images of the calibration targets should be taken on the ground and included in the mission data.

  • In the case where these calibration images are available in the data set and their (exif) metadata has been properly filled, they are automatically detected by the Field Software and selected for further processing. They are represented by blue dots on the mission screen and can be inspected by clicking them in the view image mode.

  • In the case where calibration images are available in the data set, but their (exif) metadata has not been properly filled, an error message will be raised as soon as you click the “Next” button to proceed to the next step of the mission creation. In this case, you will have to add those images to the selection manually, by setting the mouse mode to “+” and dragging a box around the orange dots representing these calibration images.
  • After doing so, the error message will remain when you want to proceed to the next step, but you then can ignore it.

  • In case no calibration images are available in the data set, the same error pops up.
    In this case, you should not proceed!!
