Purpose | To collect high resolution images to use for topographic elevation measurements from two restored dam sites on the Mill River in Taunton MA. | ||||||||
Location | Taunton, MA | ||||||||
Summary | Aerial imagery was collected by an unmanned aerial system (UAS) at Britannia Dam, Taunton, MA May 4, 2018. This collection was acquired to explore the UAS potential for creating high resolution elevation maps from photogrammetric techniques. 518 Ricoh GRII photos (2.79 GB) were collected along with, 16 GCPs. | ||||||||
Info derived | The high resolution images will be used to create DEM's, orthophotos, point clouds to map elevations from two restored dam sites. | ||||||||
