Looking to program a "precision run" to test some photogrammetric geo-mapping software.
I think I'll need around 80-100 still pictures of our open pit mine.
Think of a giant bowl about 2 km across... I want to start at roughly the lip of the bowl and photograph the inside of it. Pit is roughly 200m deep at this point and I'd like to program the bird to fly at roughly two altitudes - say, level with the edge of the pit, and 50-75m below the edge.
Each photo would capture around 10-15° of the pit... 360° obviously making the whole. Can't really "free fly" it due to the accuracy I'd like to introduce for testing two mapping software packages - Pix4D and Agisoft if you're familiar.
I hear of several alternatives to the operationg software supplied with the P3P... suggestions?
TIA, Brian
