Drone Mapping Tools & Calculators
The numbers that decide whether a survey flight is worth repeating are settled before take-off: flight altitude, overlap, and the resulting ground resolution. These free tools work them out, and the workflow guide puts them in order from planning to prescription.
Field Mapping Workflow
Step-by-step guide to the complete drone field mapping workflow: from planning through flight, processing, analysis, and decision implementation.
Flight Overlap Estimator
Free tool to calculate image count, flight time, and battery consumption for drone mapping flights with specified overlap and field dimensions.
Ground Resolution Calculator
Free tool to calculate ground sampling distance (GSD) and pixel resolution for drone mapping at different flight altitudes and with various camera sensors.
