We’ll get started Friday afternoon with an introduction to the plan for the weekend and short lecture, and then a short roundtable designed to allow the instructors and participants to get to know each other. These classes are always more fun, and more beneficial, when we know a bit about one another and can learn from each other. The instructor(s) will be available to answer questions and ensure we are all properly set up and equipped for the weekend.
On Saturday we will spend the entire day in the field where we will map the property. The goal is to introduce a variety of data acquisition techniques and utilize the ones best suited for this property type. Throughout the day as we fly the instructor(s) will be working with students individually to help them refine and improve their acquisition techniques.
On Sunday we will spend the entire day in the classroom covering how to use Pix4D Mapper to produce our maps and models. We will be going into great detail about all of the various processing settings to help produce the best maps and models possible. Part of the second half of the day will be spent covering the various output files produced from Pix4D and how these files relate to a deliverable product for our clients. Time will also be spent on the business side as we will be discussing the pricing of our services and products and customer acquisition.
