More Points and Not Enough Imagery

Today we visited the field again and my original goal was to collect more imagery that I was missing (particularly in the north side of my patch of land). I looked for a Pentax to fly with but I wasn’t able to get my hands on one so I decided to help Howard with his Imagery on the South Side of the valley. While the winds picked up and the rain came, I knew he would need someone else to pilot the quad copter.

After flying the quad-copter for awhile, I decided to head back to base camp to grab a Yuma and collect some georeference points. this poised to be fairly difficult as the Yuma didn’t work perfectly. Three georeference points were collected in total so I could later calculate the volume of my Photoscanned plot.

While I wasn’t able to get my hands on a Pentax, my personal one I had ordered arrived in the mail. I prepared it for taking imagery tomorrow and I spent the night getting my research organized and ready for the final steps.
