Case File · Hampton, VA59.0 m AGL · 15,236 tie points

One flight. 226 images. A model the client opens in a browser.

A cemetery survey flown at 59 meters. Headstones, paths, and tree canopy captured in a single pass, then reconstructed into a streaming 3D model that loads without a plugin or a desktop viewer. Bundle adjustment held to a 1.37 pixel residual across 15,236 tie points.

Where this stops

Ground sample distance is a resolution figure. This flight used standard positioning, so the model is dimensionally consistent within itself and is not a surveyed control network. Work that has to tie to real-world coordinates gets PPK, and SAI will say so on the first call.

Delivered from this flight

  • 3D mesh at 9.7 mm / px. The model shown here.
  • Orthomosaic at 0.96 cm / px. Delivered as a Cloud Optimized GeoTIFF and built into the client's cemetery mapping platform, where it is still live.
