I'm adapting a Mavic 2 Pro for photogrammetry by installing a lidar system similar to (but downsized) from one we developed for the Inspire 1.
So I can correctly adjust for the difference in image plane and the plane of measurement of the lidar, I need to know (as exactly as possible), where the image plane of the Hasselblad camera is. Can anyone help?


Thanks, Steve D

Hope this helps!

Thanks for your suggestion. I may have missed something, but I don't think it answers my question.

As you can see from the picture, I have the lidar sensor facing vertically, so it measures altitude directly. What I'm seeking to know is - when the drone's camera is facing straight down, what's the altitude difference between what the lidar measures, and what the camera sees. I know where in the body of the lidar the its "measurement plane" is. I need to know where in the body of the Hasselblad camera the focal plane is.

On many film and digital cameras this is indicated by a circle with a line though it.

Any ideas?

Sorry, no!
