With Flyby Mapping, you can automate mission planning and seamlessly perform orthostatic photogrammetry missions. Let’s go through your workflows step by step:

Plan Your Flight

Photogrammetry Mission Setup

Step 1 - Choose Create Mission

You’ll be prompted to tap the map to create waypoints.

Step 2 - Adjust Waypoints

A rectangle will appear with a serpentine waypoint path inside it. Click and drag the points on the rectangle to adjust your polygon and map your desired area.

Alternatively, you can upload a KML file to execute a pre-planned mission.

Step 1 - Choose Upload KML

After loading your KML files from your computer onto your controller, select "Upload KML"

Step 2 - Browse KML Files

Choose "Browse Files" on the pop-up menu to see and select from a menu of KML files available on your controller.

Step 3 - Select KML Mission

Choose your KML file or multiple files from the menu of KML files on your controller. Click "Save". After saving, you can click the pencil icon to edit your polygon if needed. Once you’ve established your coverage area, you can adjust your camera and mission settings.

You can always save your mission and revisit it later. Simply click the pencil to edit the mission again, and click the trash can icon to delete the mission.

Adjust Sensor Settings

Currently, Flyby Mapping supports the Sony ILX-LR1. Adjust your camera settings in the app to optimize for your mission specifications:
