• Ground Sampling Distance (GSD)
• Height. The flight height can be defined in two ways:
– using the DEM (default configuration): in that case the aircraft trajectory
(waypoints) follows the terrain elevation.
CAUTION
In the generated flight plan, waypoints are located at the end of flight lines (where the aircraft
turns) and set above terrain elevation. Between waypoints aircraft always follow a straight
line. If there is a steep hill between 2 waypoints, the aircraft will not follow terrain of that hill.
Elevation graph allows you to check your flight height. A warning is displayed if there is a risk
to hit terrain. If terrain is very hilly please consider flying above aircraft's initial position (see
below), it may be easier to ensure a minimal flight height.
– fixed above the aircraft's initial position (if the option is manually selected by the
user): in that case the aircraft will fly at a fixed altitude above the aircraft's initial
(start-up) position
Note
Clicking on the
SHOW ELEVATION
on the map button allows to visualise the aircraft height
above ground if DEM is available.
CAUTION
Because the aircraft initial position is unknown at the time of flight preparation, the elevation
graph uses the pre-defined takeoff location. It is strongly recommended to switch on your
aircraft close to the takeoff location otherwise the elevation graph may be significantly wrong.
If that cannot be done, the user should update takeoff location and verify the elevation graph
(clicking on the
SHOW ELEVATION
button).
• DEM: If a custom DEM has been imported on the tablet, a dropdown list allows you to
select the DEM to use for the configured flight.
Note
The complete flight shall be included in the custom DEM boundary.
• Forward overlap: based on the configured overlap, the system will keep the forward
overlap constant throughout the flight taking into account flight height and ground speed
(which ensures constant overlap even in varying wind conditions for instance).
• Side overlap
• Margin (distance to be flown outside the area, computed automatically)
• Optionally, toggle the
Flight lines direction linked to wind
option.
