Sometimes we fail but most of the time when we hit something there is no paint or flags. I am wondering if a drone video would be better than our handheld phone/camcorder footage? I have never used a drone personally but have seen some of the images. It sure would be quick and easy to fly a route. Not sure the altitude you would want to use. Not sure if it would see more than the camcorder on the ground. I am thinking that the aerial view would see the paint better but the ground view would see the flags. Be good for engineering I would think. Hopefully much better resolution than Google earth. I wonder if you can correct the perspective distortion? </blockquote> -- AF mailing list AF@af.afmug.com http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
