Join Tim as he takes you on a Start to Finish tutorial in doing a photogrammetry mission. This tutorial will include setting up targets, collecting data on the Emlid RS2 Base and Rover units, setting up the Mavic 2 Pro for flying the mission with manual settings, and post processing all the Emlid, TopoDrone, and image data.

Whether you are brand new or still trying to learn some aspects of photogrammetry, this video should be very helpful. An index will be added with chapter titles so you can jump to the desired section to rewatch.

This is part of a 2 part tutorial. Part 2 will included generating the final deliverables for yourself or your client. It will also take a deep dive and compare the accuracy of the point clouds generated from a PPK vs NON PPK flight.

And in future videos we will process the same PPK flight in different photogrammetry software to see how they all compare. So subscribe today to be notified when new content comes out!

Thank you for watching!
