Hi,
Need some help/advise with using 45mm for mapping a roof for inspection - NOT 3D model.
We have been testing DroneDeploy for automated full roof inspections - basically to save us time taking manual pictures which can be difficult when doing sizes such as 10,000 sq ft. We are using the Olympus 45mm, X5 on Inspire Pro.
The picture quality isn’t great - they almost look unfocused? We need them really detailed for post analysis for conditions. Attached are a couple of photos.
We have had issues previously when flying below 30ft above the structure but on this particular flight we were at 60ft AGL aprox 40ft above the roof and they are still poor quality.
I have no idea why? below are the settings for both DD & the camera.
DD Settings:
Overlap: 90%
Speed: 4 MPH
Height: 60ft
Camera: Manual
Camera Settings:
Focus: Infinity (Manual)
ISO: 100
AP: f/6.3
Shutter: 1/250
Has anyone got any experience doing this or what could be wrong? Or is it simply impossible with this lens for this particular task? Could it be the focus or are we missing something? Surely its not the speed as 1/250 at 4mph is fine. We did fly faster before and had the same issue hence slowed it down.
Thanks in advance!
Jack
