Pixpro Waypoints v2 - Orbitals and Height Offset for DJI Drones
Pixpro Waypoints is a service for consumer DJI drone users that provides consistent and automated flying for aerial photogrammetry purposes. For now, we had the essential single grid flight only, which is the bread and butter for making orthophoto images and terrain scans.
Multi-battery Scans with Pixpro Waypoints
Pixpro waypoint service enables us to do grid flights with the best consumer-grade drones on the market. It is based on the current waypoint functionality, which has a limit of 101 waypoints. With a grid flight, such a limit means little.
Quad-Bayer Sensors - Impact on Image Quality and Photogrammetry
Quad bayer image sensor tech is quite common but not necessarily understood by consumers. We often mention that a drone or a smartphone camera has a quad-bayer sensor, so its stated resolution is not "real."
DJI Mini 4 Pro Photogrammetry - Pixpro Waypoints
DJI Mini 4 Pro is the best drone, weighing in under 250 grams, and thus, it avoids a lot of regulations that may be bothersome for some. However, it is also an excellent tool for professionals, many of whom may be interested in aerial photogrammetry.
Photogrammetry Processing - Common Hardware and Software Issues
Photogrammetry requires complex processing and data crunching to turn photos into 3D models. We need a powerful machine to run the software and all its processes. Not only that, but the software within our machine may impact the performance of photogrammetry software in various ways.
Full Frame vs. APSC for Photogrammetry?
Full frame versus APSC is an eternal debate between photographers and videographers alike. If you want a great camera that would provide a clear benefit over using your smartphone - you probably need to get one with an APSC or full frame-sized sensor.
Manual vs. Electronic Lenses - Which is Best for You?
A lens focuses light onto the imaging sensor or film, thus creating an image. There are dozens of types of different lenses and different categories by use case or physical properties. But if we had to split all of the optical world into two distinct categories - it would be electronic and manual le
Speed Limit Settings for Photogrammetry
Speed settings are essential for consistent flights and overlap control in photogrammetry. When we make our 3D scanning examples, we always use various speed limit settings with the consumer DJI drones.
DJI Mini 4 Pro Review and Comparison
DJI Mini 4 Pro is here only after a year since the DJI Mini 3 Pro was released. DJI opted to make a quick incremental update without inflating its price. However, some might say that the new version is more than incrementally better and represents the ultimate technological capabilities of su 250-gr
