Once the position of the flight path is correct, the settings (see Area Route Configuration) are

configured correctly, you are ready to save (see Saving a Mission) and fly (see Flying the Mission).

Area Route Configuration

The following settings are common to all aerial mission types.

Height – (Default 60m) The distance above the takeoff point that the drone captures photos.

Flying higher can make image stitching easier at the expense of resolution. Mapping

difficult subjects such as vegetation, a desert, or water will benefit from using a higher

elevation. If the area you are flying requires a lower altitude, increase your overlap to

make photos stitching easier. Range: 30 - 800 meters.

GSD – (Display-only) Ground Sampling Distance refers to the number of (camera) pixels per centi-

meter of ground image. The higher the GSD the greater level of detail and accuracy.

Range: 0.4 cm/px -10.3 cm/px.

Front OverLap – (Default 80%) The percentage of overlap between the front and back of the

Side OverLap – (Default 70%) The percentage of overlap between the sides of the images.

waypoint is reached.

flight area. Range: 10% - 90%.

Increasing the ratio results in the aircraft flying closer to the previous flight

line, decreasing the ratio increases the flight distance. Range: 10% - 90%.

Gimbal Pitch – The camera gimbal will move the gimbal to the configured pitch when the
