Ignis Operations Manual
Drone Amplified
Figure 7.16.2b: After you generate waypoints, the app will simulate where photos might be
taken along the waypoint mission, and how much area they’ll cover (white rectangles). In
this figure, the terrain rises to a peak underneath the drone, preventing its photos from
overlapping, even though the app estimates 66% overlap.
The app predicts the points along your mission where photos will be taken, and draws
the footprint for some of those photos on the map as translucent white rectangles, as shown
in Figure 7.16.2b. It only does this for a few of the photos near the center of your screen so
you aren’t overwhelmed with information. Use this to verify that the mission will yield the
correct photo overlap.
Figure 7.16.2c: After adding intermediate waypoints from the side view, the photos overlap
the correct amount.
