I’m new to aerial photography. I watched videos to know to shoot in Raw format. My question, I went out today in snowy Massachusetts and took some aerial photos. When I got home and pulled them up on my iPhone, I zoomed in on what I was shooting and all edges of what I shot are jagged. What am I doing wrong, or do you correct it in Lightroom?

All images are just pixels if enlarged enough. You phone was likely showing you a preview as it can’t display RAW... at best you’ll get an automatic .DNG conversion. I always shoot stills in jpeg+RAW

If your pulling them up on your phone they might be just the low resolution thumbnails. The high resolution images are on the card in the drone.

What are you flying?

Your phone is not a suitable device to manipulate raw images.
You need specialised software to use raw image files and without the appropriate software, all you'll see is the small jpg preview images.
If you want to use the phone, you'd do better to use jpg files.
Jpg files will give much better images than the widespread prejudice against them in the forum would have you believe.

Sounds like you have a zoom in far too much
