Flight altitude for hilly forest area

General Discussion
#1

Hello guys,

Just wanted to get some opinions. I am going to fly and mapped a hilly forest area. What’s the recommended altitude to fly it? Can i fly it at 200m or more altitude? How many percent overlap should i use? I am using Phantom 3 Pro. Thank you in advance.

Hello,

This Support Doc covers the basics on creating a successful map. Flying higher, on a cloudy day, with at least 70% overlap on images is highly recommended: http://support.dronedeploy.com/docs/making-successful-maps
