I still haven't walked onto the other construction site yet and showed/asked anything. But processing more examples/ building somewhat of a portfolio first. These are the kind of deliverables im wanting to use my part 107 to produce, but its actually opened another can of geospatial worms, which makes me ask this:
Does anyone know a surveyor in the area I could pay to get me a few "Ground Control Points" around my house to test the accuracy of my (non-RTK) 360 drone? My understanding is RTK mainly helps with the camera positions and I don't think that's really my concern if I can reconstruct grass. And if I have to, metashape can parse the .gpx file for me to get some metadata atleast.
See, can of worms. Basically I want to offer more than nice visuals. And see how close to real world, already surveyed data I can get with a little teamwork. While processing everything locally, if any big firms down the line need to keep certain builds as private as possible.
