Hello I'm wanting to create some thermomaps.  On my list of possible sensors is the Zenmuse XT.  I want to figure out what the GSD is to see if this sensor will be sufficient for my purposes.  Does anyone know where I can find this information?

-Thanks

you can calculate it pretty easily based on height and pixel resolution of your xt. it'll be lower altitude than you probably like, we map with similar resolution albeit a different camera and its difficult getting good gsd's when most visual spectrum cameras are magnitudes higher in resolution

Awesome thanks!  What software have you been using to create the maps.  It looks like DroneDeploy is a solid option.  However they only support the M200 not the 210 or 210RTK.
