Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a capture take?

Keep each capture to about 20 to 30 minutes, and split larger areas into several captures.

How should I walk the site?

Start at a distinct feature, such as a sign, then walk back-and-forth rows 5 to 10 m (15 to 30 ft) apart. Keep features within 5 m (15 ft) of your path, and circle anything you need in the most detail.

How do I improve accuracy?

Set your own ground control points and run Align to Control. The Achieving High Accuracy webinar walks through it.
