Remote Image Trigger and File Transfer

I'm working on a school project that uses a 3DR Solo and Rededge camera to capture images of local crops to calculate the NDVI.  We would like to remotely trigger image captures then transfer files to a ground station for processing.  The camera has a 4-pin connector for triggering captures and an 8-pin serial/ethernet connector for other commands like file transfer.  From what I understand, we would need to solder the two connectors appropriately to the drone then use whatever communication protocol exists to get files and take pictures.  I have no experience doing any of this, so I was hoping someone here might have a few tips.  Thanks!
