Thanks once again LV_Forestry for looking into and sharing info on this important issue.
To make a strained analogy, without somebody validating the sensors in this way we (users) are all sort of like illicit drug users in that we are at the mercy of our supplier, trusting them that they are selling us what we need, but sometimes having unintended and undesirable results when they don't.
You're absolutely right, if you don't have another sensor to validate the results, you have to trust what the manufacturer tells you. Pix4D's answer leaves me speechless. At the beginning the guy sells you the use of his software with a target of reflectance to obtain optimal results. In the end, yes you're fine, you multiply by two, compare the apples with the apples.
I've seen sellers of dreams but then he surpasses all the rest. I don't even want to know how their prescription maps are made. I imagine that for them a few tons/hectar is nothing, compare apple with apple. As long as the farmers pay for the recommendations. Just look at the studies done with control plots...
I still haven't had the opportunity to receive a dataset to see if the M3M holds up. No response from DJI, but that's no surprise.
If they were sure of their products it would be known. At the moment there is an upsurge of idiots who buy products because they are stamped "Pro" or "Enterprise" and who come here to cry because it does not correspond to their expectations.
Little message to reassure them: DJI doesn't care! You have paid, after-sales service is not included. This RedEdge band story is the perfect example. |
