What I think you see is the undulation of the road. When viewed as a 3D model the road has a bit of up and down elevation. I believe this is due to the…"

I didnt use Mission Planner; I havent been able to find GoPro Settings in Mission Planner, not to say they dont exist. I found Droid Planner 2 for my android device much better.

"Thanks for the reply... definitely what I needed to know.
Now I just need to get comfortable with Mission Planner.. The UI isnt nearly as friendly as DronePlanner. "

"I've never flowN a survey mission.hoping to by the end if the month.
4 grids makes sense; but I'm more wondering if you RTL'D in the middle of a mission, could you get the IRIS to continue at the last waypoint?"

"I recommend that you download Mission Planner, as you can put in the survey and camera type and measure your area.
To calculate Im using the SX260 for mission planning. For 100 acres it would take 37mins total flight time.
But this doesnt include…"

"You get your IRIS and S100 out for a spin yet?

"Bought an SX260 and the IRIS+ today. Will ship off my SX260 to Event38 for the NDVI conversion. As soon as I get results Ill post them.
Im going to try GrassGIS for the orthorectification, but might also use DroneMapper as they offer reasonable…"

"Right on.
I already have Arcgis, and I downloaded the trial version of Photoscan. Very user friendly. A bit pricey so I don't know if I want to invest that much yet.
I used Erdas for photogrammetry before. Terrible program, horrendous UI."

"Can you post the website you got the NDVI conversion at?
Have you decided on your post processing software? I'm gonna try the open source grass orthorectification, but it doesn't look very friendly.
I emailed drone deploy but they haven't…"

"Thanks for the reply.
I always thought the IR-Pro looked a little dubious, but was worth a try.
Thanks for the link, will definitely look into that. Is the S100 compatible with the survey portion of APM mission planner?"

"Wow, cant believe I got such fast replies.
I read an article talking about NDVI. It talked about the fact that NDVI was originally meant for use from Landsat as the Bands have better normalization due to the satellite being so high and not having…"
