I would be interested in seeing your recommendations on using storage like a NAS, Raid array, or USB-C external SSD for storing mapping mission photos and all. My last mission was 32GB for the photos and I have had webodm go over 1TB for a 250,000 sqft building model.
Mapping missions and storage memory

- Start date
I store my images on a Synology 923+ with 4 24TB Drives.
I also use WebODM. I'm curious though, are you keeping the RAW files also?
I shot a 127 acre property, and only used 9gb data using just the jpg.
I have not found a reason to use or keep RAW files.
Here is the 137 acres PAH Paynesville

I dont know much about the mapping game BUT for storage I use Seagate Firecuda external drives.
The FireCuda 8 TB runs around $150 U.S.

You need a RAID 5 configuration to protect and preserve your data!

This project was a search and rescue mission that covered 18+ miles of creek bed and was flown multiple times as the creek level changed with successive storms. The mapping mission keeps track of debris piles, creek jams, banks falling in and general erosion. The raw images are put through image analysis software to look for clues.
After the mission is over I don’t know. My data has already been incorporated in the county ARCGIS database and I’m seeing if Google and the USGS might be interested. Once they respond it will eventually get deleted except for the mission profiles. Those might get reused if we get called back to the area
