Day 20

This day wasn’t so great because I did not get the results I wanted. I went out into the field again to try to get imagery of the area with a pretty good amount of Hala. The problem was that rain and wind got in the way of the flight plans and didn’t get me the images I wanted. I spent a lot of the time trying to stitch together the images I had and after waiting hours of building geometry and texture I got a product that I wasn’t really able to use. I lost a lot of time from my computer overheating and crashing, causing me to start it over again and try Photoscan on lower settings. Eventually I was able to stitch my photos off of Paul’s computer. We had another update/group discussion and when it was my turn to share my ideas were shot down and I was left to reassess my research question. I was really stressed out for the rest of the night and was fortunate that the next day was our day off. Hopefully I get to clear my mind and think of something. Today was the first day I didn’t take a real photo but here is one just to look at.
