Objective & Location
Objective
The main preface of this mission was to conduct a thermal scan to determine what GCP (Ground Control Point) material would be the best for future analysis. We flew the Matrice 300 & Skydio X10 platform at 200ft AGL and performed a thermal scan to isolate focal points of the GCP demonstrating potential data gathered in the field. From this data gathered we were going to determine what material might need to be modified in order to have the most desirable result in the future. Current adjustments would also allow this to be utilized in the classroom for other students to also dive deep into yet another industry that could be used for analysis. This is mainly to relate thermal imagery to the real world because you can’t connect RTK with thermal scans.
Location
Our main base of operations was at the Purdue Wildlife Area. This location had some hazards to be aware of like trees surrounding the property, electrical lines on the south side, and housing/facilities on the west side. The ground was a little damp, but dry enough to conduct normal operations.
