Hello, first time poster and novice commercial pilot...
I do a lot of photogrammetry / orthomosaics using our DJI Matrice 210 RTK V2 and Pix4D.
Recently, a client asked if we could do a fly by of a portion of coastline in our area, record a video of it, but also take overlapping pictures of the coastline and stitch them together to create a large linear panoramic photo. Were talking about a frontal view of the coastline, not an overhead view like we would take in a photogrammetric survey.

Is there a way to program a flight in DJI Pilot that would do that? So far only a waypoint flight would allow this, but it seem to be requiring a waypoint for each photo. I would like to just program the flight path and tell it to shoot with an xy gimbal orientation and with an overlap of x %.


Or, would it be easier to extract stills from my video

Also, if I manage to make this automated flight happen, what is the best way to stitch it all together afterwards? Pix4D? LightRoom? Or something else?

Thanks in advance for the help!
