[UAS] Youtube vide from UAS flights on Walnut Gulch yesterday

[Macarthur, Robert - (robmac)]

Way cool!

Questions, mostly about the post-processing: 1.)  how do you ground truth?  Put markers on the ground for known coordinates?  Or do you even need that with the LiDAR?  2.) How does the person running the drone keep on even scans/swaths?  3.) Is the finished product orthoganal-ized and how are the recorded swaths stitched together? (May be behind the times on how this)

Our neighbor was flying a drone the other night - held it over our back yard briefly while Penny and I were outside boozing - really creepy....
