Maps Made Easy looks great!
What I've been doing to give a feel for a large area is shoot spherical panoramas, stitching in PTgui and assembling it in Pano2vr and uploading to a WordPress site.
But I just tried Litchi, and found I can get great results. I did a test taking photos with a 30 waypoint grid, and I can get 20 acres easily. It might be a case of just breaking the property into sections and going through section by section, maybe by increasing the grid to 50 photos. Any more, and I might be pushing the battery!
Forget Litchi, it's not what you need at all.
For mapping, you need much bigger overlaps.
Use a proper mapping app to plan, fly and acquire the images.
As I tried to explain back in the 3rd post, 800 acres would be a big mapping exercise.
To fly an 800 acre square at 400 ft, you'd need at least 6 flights and the app would shoot about 1700 overlapping images that could be used to create a huge orthophoto map. |
