    Study Notes

    Photogrammetry and Mapping

    • Flat light is the best light for photogrammetry, which is why overcast weather is ideal for mapping missions
    • The Mavic 3 Enterprise drone has a wide flight route and altitude setting for mapping missions

    Drone Settings and Safety

    • The takeoff speed is set at 33.5, and the drone's battery voltage should be monitored to ensure it stays above 14.4 volts for a safe flight
    • The drone can fly with caution and maintain a visual line of sight with the pilot
    • It's essential to keep an eye on the drone's battery voltage during the flight, especially during mapping missions

    Autonomous Mission

    • The drone can take multiple photos in a single spot, which can help with the mapping mission
    • The dewarping mode can be enabled to remove barrel distortion from images, making it easier for photogrammetric software to stitch them together
    • The drone can be set to return home and then put in sport mode for more control during landing

    Landing and Safety

    • It's crucial to ensure the drone and pilot are facing the same direction during landing to avoid reverse orientation issues
    • The pilot should always be ready to fly in attitude mode in case of an emergency

    Course Overview

    • The course covers rules of takeoff, rules of landing, settings for photography and videography, and how to create 3D models with an orbital acquisition plan
    • There are no intelligent flight modes beyond this point, but updates to the mapping course will include new features and comparisons with other drones

    Photogrammetry and Mapping

    • Ideal lighting conditions for photogrammetry are overcast weather due to flat light
    • Mavic 3 Enterprise drone has adjustable flight route and altitude settings for mapping missions

    Drone Settings and Safety

    • Takeoff speed is set at 33.5 for safe flights
    • Monitor battery voltage to ensure it stays above 14.4 volts during flights
    • Fly with caution and maintain visual line of sight with the pilot

    Autonomous Mission

    • Drone can capture multiple photos in a single spot for improved mapping results
    • Dewarping mode removes barrel distortion from images, making stitching easier for photogrammetric software
    • Drone can be set to return home and switch to sport mode for more control during landing

    Landing and Safety

    • Ensure drone and pilot face the same direction during landing to prevent reverse orientation issues
    • Be prepared to fly in attitude mode in case of an emergency

    Course Overview

    • Course covers rules for takeoff and landing, settings for photography and videography, and 3D model creation with orbital acquisition plan
    • Future updates to the mapping course will include new features and comparisons with other drones
