Good Day to Everyone,
I have looked at some of the posts and gained some advice - thank you.
I have some specific questions as a new user and budding pilot, if y’all could entertain me here please?
The attached image shows what I planned for this site, each zone being approx 9Ha, and the location of my proposed GCP’s. May I ask the forum to offer comment on the possibility of stitching these three missions, namely the location of the GCP’s. I have them in the overlap of each mission - is this good practice? Will the three missions stitch seamlessly? The reason for the 9Ha missions is the low flight - approx 20m for each - the client wants super detail.
Many thanks for your time, looking forward to the replies.

If you have common GCP’s at the overlap of each flight then yes you can stitch them together in a number of ways but processing all the images together would be the most efficient. GCP’s and/or RTK/PPK would be necessary though to make sure layers aren’t created.
Hi Michael, thanks for your reply.
I guess the scary thing for me is sitting for hours identifying GCP’s in about 1300 images. I still need to plan the whole site, so I am open to suggestions. Would you be willing to have a look at the area about 80Ha and offer some advice by way of a Google Earth polygon?
Many thanks.

Any way I can help. The total area is larger than what is shown? You show 3x 9Ha above but said 80Ha below. Just for clarity sake. Are you using any RTK/PPK?
If he has common control points (GCPs) at the intersection of each mission, he can effectively merge them. This avoids the creation of layers that can occur if the data is not processed correctly. Processing all the images together will be the most efficient way to do this as it minimises errors and improves the quality of the final product
