Let's assume that an area covered by the drone was filmed at an A x B resolution (in pixels). From the flight log generated, I have the height at each instant of time of this recording. So I would like to know how to find the dimensions of a video frame in meters. I tried to make a drawing to try to help in understanding.Sorry, but your question doesn't make sense to me. Can you elaborate?
The answer to your question will only be dependent on the height of the camera above the ground and the aspect ratio of the image.Let's assume that an area covered by the drone was filmed at an A x B resolution (in pixels). From the flight log generated, I have the height at each instant of time of this recording. So I would like to know how to find the dimensions of a video frame in meters. I tried to make a drawing to try to help in understanding.
But it's a simple matter to find the field of view of the camera at any height.There just do not exist sufficient data to calculate from pixel density and video dimension. One should use a 2D mapping software and use the phot geometry functions to calculate the dimensions.
Camera angle?But it's a simple matter to find the field of view of the camera at any height.
His post #4 suggests that the camera was shooting straight down.Camera angle?
The angle of view for camera lenses is usually given as a diagonal, not horizontal angle.According to the P4P specs the horizontal Field Of View (FOV) is 84°.
Try ThisI have the flight log of the drone where I can get the height at the instant of time I want. Also, I have the length and width information in pixels of the frame. How can I calculate the length and width in meters?
