hi, how can we make sure that the final image we achieving is of 2:3 ratio. Do we have to map it lil bit outside the area coverage so that we can mark it up on the image. Just trying to see any final images if you have to share, thanks
Hi, welcome into the world of drones! Which version of the Mavic 3 have you got? The Mavic 3 Pro isn't compatible with this app. The Mavic 3 Enterprise has its own mapping app native to the controller. Hope that helps!
@@GeoNadir Have the Mavic 3 Pro. :( Found Waypointmaps, but have had difficulty getting planned missions to the controller/drone. Thank you for the response. For now I'll be doing it manually.
Thank you for the method, very intelligent process! If you only have one camera and scan the area in a zigzag pattern, is it necessary to separate the photographs into groups for each line covered, as if there were multiple cameras? Are the photos wide or linear angle?
Hi, great question. I don't actually, but it is pretty simple setup: 1 length of PVC pipe, 3 GoPros attached which are facing down. They are then set to take 1 photo per second. I also have a swim buoy with a GPS inside it trailing behind me. You can see the set up in the photo of my LinkedIn profile here - www.linkedin.com/in/drkjoyce/ There is also a GoPro facing forward in this photo, but that wasn't used for generating these 3D models.
It is just PVC pipe stuck together with a joiner in the middle to make it easier to take apart and transport. Some pool noodles to get the floatation just right, and then GoPro clamps around the PVC pipe. Very cheap but effective!
Hi - you said it works with Android - cool - trying to install the Android APK called Ctrl+DJI which is required for Pix4D Capture to run - but the Android App store says - this product Ctrl+DJI is not available in your region Australia?
@4:40 you say you takeoff manually? How? Do you use the dji app to take off - or can the Pix4D Capture app allow you to take off manually? I not sure how you jump between manual and auto waypoint modes? Does the Pix4DCapture app land in the same spot it captured prior to take off? thanks ....
1. What happens if the mission is longer than your battery time. Does it return home manually? Can you pause the drone bring it home swap in another and return it back automatically where it left off? 2. If collision avoidance is on will it work using this app. It's an Mavic Air 2S
You can pause the mission and then fly back to change over the battery, it doesn't do this automatically. Once you have changed the battery, you will then take off and restart the mission and the drone should go back to its last point. Collision avoidance - not too sure...
Yes, there is a free option that allows you to store and process your data. If you want to download an orthomosaic then you will need to have a paid subscription. You can join up for a month and there is no ongoing commitment required. Here is the pricing page - geonadir.com/pricing/
I don't know what I'm doing wrong. But I don't see the same options under workflow. I see the following: "Align Photos", "Build Mesh", "Build Texture", "Build Point Cloud", "Build Panorama". I am trying to export a photomosaic like you did. Is this the same as Build Panorama? If so, then I still need help because even after I've processed Build Mesh the option Build Panorama is Greyed out. This is on Metashape Standard v2.0.1 build 16069 on macOS High Sierra.
Good video ! How can I perform vertical paths (North-South) instead of the parallels (East-West). When I select the "polygon" mode, it gives a East-West paths (as in your clip). Thx.
Hi David, go into the options where you change the altitude etc, scroll over until you find 'course angle'. You can change this to whatever you like (90deg for North/South).
Hi! The images are saved on the SD card inside the drone as it is flying. Once the drone lands you can just take the SD card out of the drone, put it into a SD card reader and transfer these photos onto your computer, or upload them straight onto GeoNadir. GeoNadir will then stitch all of these individual images into one big picture called an orthomosaic.
No, DroneLink doesn't support the MiniPro 3 - support.dronelink.com/hc/en-us/articles/360025829933-What-are-the-system-requirements-Supported-drones-and-devices-
The app calculates the time required to achieve the %overlap you set based on the camera field of view (i.e. the angle that it views at), the size of the camera frame, and the altitude you fly. So I can't say exactly the distance or time interval that it will acquire at. But it does it automatically so you don't have to worry about it :) Give it a try!
You can do mapping with our one time payment Premium and Elite Hobbyist plans. But we also have have subscription plans for business users depending on the features and drones you require. Learn more here: app.dronelink.com/pricing
@@Dronelink hi i all ready buy the elite version, and have a issue at the time of inporting a kmz whit 1000hectareas, the web crashes. how can i fix it, or how can i import that kind of area?
I have drone link and as of right now, it is a one pay deal. What you pay depends on the type of drone that you have. Dronelink's system is mostly used with DJI drones and works best with them.
We usually set the camera on 1sec capture interval. And Agisoft doesn't need geotags, which is really handy. We often tow a GPS and then tie the location to the photos based on time stamp, but we don't have to do that for Agisoft to work which is why we use it for this. Pix4D can also cope without geotags as well.
Thanks for the quick rundown. So just getting this straight. The app helps you capture the images to your drone automatically, but doesn't process them into a 3d model etc? Cheers Jake
