|
Course Angle |
Use the Course Angle to align the flight path to fly along the longest axis of the field |
||
|
Margin |
Adjust such that the flight path Is at least 2 flight lines outside the boundaries in all directions |
||
|
|
|
Flight lines |
Area should be completely covered and extended with at least 2 flight lines at each side. This because we should at least have pictures of all GCPs from all directions! Along the longest axis of the field! |
|
|
|
Timing & cloud cover |
From 10am -4pm
