Course 2: Use Pix4Dfield to draw boundaries and upload into XAG
1. Process the Images
- Take out the SD card from the Mavic 3 drone and put it to a computer.
- Start Pix4Dfield
- Create a New Project
- Import the folder where the images are
- Start processing the RGB images in JPEG format
- Select the "Fast Processing" for this project because it's flat, and we are on the edge of the field, which will make the process quicker. The other option, "Accurate," will take much longer, which is best suited for areas of high and low elevations.
- Click to start processing
2. Outline the boundary
- Now, the images are done processing.
