    I doubt if any automated process would be very accurate considering all of the building shadows in an urban setting due to sun angle. As a person who often draws maps manually from aerials using CADD, I can tell you first-hand it is often...

    How accurate do you need it to be? First priority is that you have a low enough GSD to create crisp edges for AI feature extraction to work. Even with training these models still have trouble because of the wide variety of shapes and roofing...

    Okay, thanks for the clrification. Now I know what I could be in for if I ever do a full annual policy. I agree with you Dave on knowing all the drones and making a rate that accounts for the overall risk.

    I have had the current policy for two years and can't remember if they asked me for m/m and serial numbers when I signed up. I did email them asking about adding another drone and they said send the m/m and serial number and they would create a...

    They specify "the number of drones in your fleet that you will operate within the policy period, including owned, leased, rented, or borrowed." They do not require any model or serial # information. Since they are only insuring the craft during...

    Extracting building footprints from UAS imagery can be a tricky process, especially in dense urban areas where precision is key.

    jaja6009 replied to the thread The Annual Liability Question.
    I am not sure I am understanding this. When you get insurance do they ask you for the number of drones you want insured? Or do they ask for the individual make, model and serial number? At work we have to give the insurance company the make...

    I would just continue with the 1-2 drone rate liability. I currently own a dozen drones right now. But when I show up on a job I typically have 2. One to use and 1 as a backup. Their meaning for specifying a "#" of drones is unclear and...

    That’s great, but all I did was clarify that Virtual Surveyor is not photogrammetry software even though they consistently put the word photogrammetry in their marketing material.

    Given the initial poster's interest in measuring mine dumps, it seemed reasonable for at least educational purposes to suggest looking at the YouTube video about the new Terrain Creator. Also, the poster was concerned about the risk of placing...

    Virtual Surveyor does not perform image alignment, generate point clouds, or create orthomosaics. It is not a full photogrammetry processing software like Agisoft Metashape, Pix4D, or RealityCapture. Instead, it is designed to work with...

    Time to renew my business liability insurance. I have two drones in my inventory. Been using Skywatch for my liability coverage. No Hull coverage. 1-2 drones is $665 for 1M general liability. I am replacing one of my aging thermal drones for a...

    You might also want to look at the Virtual Surveyor software product.

    yes research is where I find it might be useful. other than that, I was flying and counting lettuce app. 2 weeks after planting on 20 ha last year. Required resolution was at around 0.6 cm/px. Used M3M and field edges were bit difficult due to...

    No need for that gsd. Unless you need it for object detection.

    Labels and rates please. Looking for options.
