We had some great frost in mid-January! Nice shot!

Unfortunately, this is not something you will be able to find, and even if you could, as a surveyor, I would be very careful trusting someone else's data. Fortunately, GCP's aren't necessary for everything, and you can make perfectly adequate, somewhat accurate geographically maps and models. If...

Yeah, I went off topic a bit. I'm just talking GPS theory, not necessarily DJI GPS requirements, and the theoretical centimetre accuracy is achieved with professional GPS equipment and longer observations. But 4 is the absolute minimum for a 3D position. Trust me, I'm thrilled that we have...

No, 4 is technically correct. You can get a horizontal position with 3 satellites, but need 4 to get vertical accuracy and you can get positions to the centimetre with 4 satellites. It's just rare these days to have so few. I wouldn't want to fly with 4, but as a surveyor, I am just clarifying...

Welcome from Alberta! Enjoy your new drone!

Nice work!

The Vancouver area may have a lot of no-fly zones. Make sure you get an app like RPAS Wilco or Canadian Airspace Viewer to check before you fly. Enjoy your visit!

Can I ask roughly what part of the province this was in? Great shot!

You should definitely be able to find a Mavic Pro controller on e-bay. Or here, in the classifieds.

Welcome from another Albertan!

Is that where Don Quixote was from?

Sturgeon River?

Would you ship it to Canada?

Great shot! I've been to the edge of the Empty Quarter. We drove from Al-Ain, UAE. I would love to do it again one day!

Awesome! If you ever need a volunteer assistant here in Alberta, let me know. I live in Leduc.
