Hi Guys,First of all, I think this website is great! I've been checking it daily for the last month or so. I would like to get involved in the European civil UAV business, and most of my skills are…Continue

Thanks for mentioning the software packages! Myself, just like many others on this forum I believe, are very interested in what UAVs can do for mapping purposes. You've proven that DSM capabilities are there, just like a…"
Peter Verwoerd replied to Ron Jacobs's discussion Canadian UAVs"Hi Ron, no I am currently based out of the Netherlands, but by browsing this website I found out about the Aerial Insight guys. They are located just east of Winnipeg I believe.
To reply to Ric; Aerial Insight have looked at the various ways to…"
Peter Verwoerd replied to Ron Jacobs's discussion Canadian UAVs"Hi Ron, thanks for the links. I have been dealing with a couple Canadian civilian corporations as well:
Micropilot (including the cropcam UAV) -
Aerial Insight -
Especially the last company has, in my opinion, looked at all the different…"
Peter Verwoerd replied to Rory Paul's discussion MicroPilot 3rd Party Flight Planning Tool"Hi Rory,
Thanks for the news. I'm very interested in the Micropilot technology so it's great to hear they finally released some decent flight planning software. I've downloaded the demo, but I have my doubts about how accurate the…"
Peter Verwoerd replied to Mark Willis's discussion Making Digital Elevations Models (DEM) on the cheap"Hi Gary,
This looks pretty sweet! You mentioned you took 680 pictures, is that by putting the camera in high-speed shooting? May I ask how large the area is that you have photographed? I would like to get an idea of the average plot size the UAVs…"

I fly a CropCam and with regards to the system they have MP has 10 years of experience with autopilots so have ironed a lot of the issues out. The system is by no means perfect and there are plenty of problems you will need to overcome…"
Peter Verwoerd replied to Peter Verwoerd's discussion The Micropilot or AttoPilot route?"Thanks for your input Mike.
I was wondering how we could possibly reduce the geometric distortions. Would it be possible to find an autopilot with IMU which feeds pitch, roll and yaw data directly to a gyro? This would eliminate a majority of the…"
Mike replied to Peter Verwoerd's discussion The Micropilot or AttoPilot route?"Peter,
if you want to sell the photos for commercial purposes the FlyCam series is way way below the specifications you are looking for. You need a good quality compact of 10Mp or more and with a good lens.
Yes you can stitch with a variety of…"

"Check out the entires in the comment to the T3 contest so see some examples."
Peter Verwoerd replied to Peter Verwoerd's discussion The Micropilot or AttoPilot route?"Thanks for your responses guys!
I might underestimate the GIS processing done, but wouldn't I be able to stitch the scenes using a variety of stitching programs like Hugin / PTGui / ICE etc and then geo-reference the imagery to known…"
brakar replied to Peter Verwoerd's discussion The Micropilot or AttoPilot route?"As an owner of a EasyUAV I can confirm it is a good platform for aerial photographying, (and probably also the quickest possible way to get up and running). However, in my experience getting the aerial photoes is the easy part, while prosessing in…"

"Krzy has shared data from EasyUAV and the autopilot is very impressive. Plus we're big EasyStar fans."
Peter Verwoerd replied to Peter Verwoerd's discussion The Micropilot or AttoPilot route?"Thanks for the link Chris! Just one question, why do you think it's better? Is it platform or autopilot related?"
ModeratorChris Anderson replied to Peter Verwoerd's discussion The Micropilot or AttoPilot route?
"I'd recommend you check out EasyUAV, which is based in Europe. Cheaper than Cropcam and better, IMO."

Hi Guys,First of all, I think this website is great! I've been checking it daily for the last month or so. I would like to get involved in the European civil UAV business, and most of my skills are focussed on G.I.S and remote sensing. I would like to obtain a UAV to set up a company that offers professional aerial mapping, all geo-referenced and stuff. I both have the capital / time to invest in this project and I would like some advice. I have found out about the Cropcam, which I am sure you…See More
