Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

If a UAV flight at 100 meters yields an image with a GSD of 5 cm, how does increasing the flight height to 150 meters impact the GSD?

💡 Hint: Think about how distance affects clarity.

Challenge 2 Hard

Evaluate the effectiveness of using 75% front overlap in comparison to the standard 80%. What might be the consequence in 3D modeling?

💡 Hint: Consider how images relate in reconstruction.
