I’m completely new to flying thermal drones, but not new to thermal cameras. Also, I’m completely new to processing ortho thermal images and naively thought it would be easy. Pix4Dmapper is overwhelming with terms that are apparently common within this industry. I bought an Autel Evo II VS 640T Dual and ran a mission last night and it appears to be a complete disaster based on what the Quality Reports are showing. The Dataset and Camera Optimization sections are a both red "!"s.
My only use for the drone and mapper is to complete roof inspections.
So I have a couple of questions…
- Is there a comprehensive course for only thermal processing? Hopefully in video format. Maybe a YT video?
- Or, is there someone or some place I can go to to hire to process the images and complete a screen recording? Or without the screen recording?
This drone camera outputs several file types: .irg, .jpg and .TIFF. I’ve attempted to upload all 3 files types in one upload, I’ve attempted the .jpg only, I’ve attempted the .TIFF only…all with disastrous results, so I’ve come to determine I have no idea what I’m doing.
Can someone guide me in the right direction? I’m not looking for a handout, I would be happy to pay for a “mentor”.
Thanks
EDIT: I’m willing to add the Quality Reports I have, but I don’t see a button to download the report within the app. On the actual Report in the upper lefthand corner, the PDF button is not highlighted and not clickable.
Another EDIT to provide a more appropriate thread title.
