I am a first time mapper. I need to photograph an area of about 40 acres. Without using expensive Drone Deploy and Pix4D....but using Microsoft ICE to stitch because it seems the best way to stich at the best value (free..) , I was planning on video shooting over the ground in a grid fashion at 7 mph, using cuved turns in Litchi.
Can someone please tell me what is the BEST speed in which to video for a stitched pano in Microsoft Image Composite Editor? What % should I overlap for a video? Are static photographs better?
This is going to be my first flight with a Phantom 4 (regular, not Pro or Adanced) at about 125 ft altitude, flat ground with sngle-story homes and oak trees at about 50 ft tall. One (1!) tree has a heght of 68n ft. So.....I figured 125 ft. to be safe?
Lastly, Can I stitch two videos and in Microsoft ICE, and THEN stitch each of those photos together? (I am assuming tht my flight may necessitate a battery landing and resumption of flight).....
A lot of Q's. I know. Please help me if you can!
Thank you very much!
