#dronemapping — Public Fediverse posts

@koen_hufkens I've been looking at that model myself recently, for photogrammetry purposes. My dream & plan is to record 3D snapshots of glacier tongues/gates over the coming years (for comparison, as part of my #TimeFade project), similar to what this research team was doing already back in 2017 and which should be much easier to achieve by now (e.g. via https://webodm.org)

There's only one city in America that isn't on Google's Street View. Documentary filmmaker Chris Parr set out to map it, using North Oak, Minnesota's byzantine rules and the help of a drone. His experience shows who gets privacy in America, and who doesn't.

A couple of years ago I was invited to a UiT (University of the Arctic in Tromsø) outreach day about coastal ecology. I did a practical session about drones and made this map!

How did I get unlicensed pilots to make a drone map in a no fly zone? They walked a flight pattern in teams, holding the drone up high - while a "pilot" directed them and pressed the shutter button! It was processed in time to show results at the end of the day :)

Drone mapping unlocks secrets of 3,000-year-old ‘mega fortress’ in the South Caucasus

A recent study using drone mapping has revealed that Dmanisis Gora, a 3,000-year-old mountainside fortress in the Caucasus Mountains, is far bigger than previously thought. The discoveries also prompted a reassessment of settlement dynamics during the Late Bronze and Early Iron Ages.

A Near Infra Red of part of the Medieval deserted village in Heath, Shropshire.
The 'black' building near the centre of the bottom of the image is the old chapel, the field above it shows the ditches from possibly an old manor house and moat.
This was from a licensed dig in 2021 the cars behind the church belonging to the volunteers.

Having some fun with #dronemapping in #webODM with my DJI Mini 3 Pro drone. Fun little program

Excellent to attend GeoWeek for a day, interact in person with so many, see some amazing technology – and got to drive a Boston Dynamics ‘robot dog’!!

For those who were interested in our aerial image of Nordy Bank HillFort we recently shared.
We also made a '3d Model', again using OpenDroneMap, and from that, produced a 'flyby video'

Nordy Bank is a univallate hillfort on the flanks of Brown Clee Hill, the highest hill in Shropshire.
Here's a composite of some 540+ drone photos, mostly from a P4Pro, but some from a Mavic Pro, all stitched together using OpenDroneMap of the hillfort and it's environs.
OpenDroneMap handled the 2 sets of images from 2 different drones effortlessly!

Nice to have our CAA Operational Authorisation renewed for another year. Looking forward to doing lots more aerial photos, videos and data collecting! (without breaking any more bones... 😲 )

Here's a view, looking down, on some of the abandoned quarry workings on Titterstone Clee Hill in #Shropshire., UK
Part of an exercise in #dronemapping we did a while back. #mapping with our #drones is just one of the many things we do!
