| Purpose | We'll be collecting high resolution imagery to create DEM's, point clouds and orthophotos for marsh stability modeling. | ||||||||
| Location | Plum Island | ||||||||
| Summary | Aerial imagery was collected by an unmanned aerial system (UAS) at Plum Island Estuary and Parker River NWR, MA February 27, 2018. This collection was acquired to explore the UAS potential for mapping marsh ecological systems, vegetation diversity, and creating high resolution elevation maps. 3338 Ricoh GRII photos (19.4 GB) were collected along with 13,415 mica photos (24.8 GB), 24 GCPs | ||||||||
| Info derived | We'll be collecting high resolution imagery for processing in photoscan to create products for elevation and vegetation surveys. | ||||||||
