Drone Ground Sample Distance and Photo Overlap Calculator
Drone Ground Sample Distance and Photo Overlap: a planned Super Calculator tool. Stub page: the tool, its formula and a worked example are not published yet.
Drone Ground Sample Distance and Photo Overlap Calculator is a planned calculator in the transport section of Super Calculator, covering operations.
What this calculator will compute
Inputs: sensor size, focal length, image width, altitude, overlap percentage and speed.
Formula, recorded as scope and not yet verified against a primary source: GSD = sensor pixel pitch times altitude divided by focal length, overlap sets shot spacing.
Written for mapping and survey drone pilots planning a mission grid.
