Today’s episode is brought to you by Drone U In-Person Events. If you want to improve your flying skills (and don’t need to), we’re hosting it for you. Our last in-person mapping training in beautiful Colorado in November.. This is a three-day boot camp and one day of flight proficiency training. It introduces the different types of data collection and provides discussion and guidance on how to handle the data collected after the flight. From Pix4d Mapper to Pix4d React, Drone Deploy and Optelos. Students will perform a total of seven exercises to familiarize themselves with the workflow for various deliverables. The goal is to map and build a model of these training locations. Join us today!!
Today on the show we discuss RTK, GCP and mapping accuracy and conducting successful mapping missions.
Join us for today’s episode where we discuss mapping in more detail and explore the need for using RTK and GCP. John’s question today is about knowing more about RTK, GCP, and mapping data accuracy. Thanks for your question John. Pilots always had to keep many parameters in mind to obtain good mapping data. In today’s podcast, we’ll look at all the parameters. We address John’s question about using RTK without GCP and provide a process for running a complete mapping mission and collecting accurate data.
