Difference of heights in images

Unfortunately DroneDeploy pulled the terrain following app never made it out of beta.

One scenario might be continuous rolling hills in which I would run two flights covering the entire area at different elevatiins with lower overlaps around 60-65%. Lower one for good detail of the valleys and a higher one to make sure you get good overlaps.

Another scenario could be a tract that has shelves or a cliff. You could run two flights at different altitudes adjacent to each other. If the elevation difference is too big I don’t think DroneDeploy is the right solution.

All that said, Litchi and 3D planning in Google Earth beats all those choices.
