Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Aerial photography requires capturing detailed images of a historical site 30 m high using a camera with a focal length of 75mm. If the aircraft flies at a height of 400 m, what is the effective scale and how does it impact your analysis of the site?

💡 Hint: Consider how the height of the site affects the relation to the flying height.

Question 2

You have a mapping project in a remote location, and the terrain is uneven. If the average height above sea level is 200m, but with some peaks at 500m, how would you decide your flying height to ensure detail is captured?

💡 Hint: Consider balancing between the highest point and building an average.
