ArcGIS Story Map

We created an ArcGIS story map to help document our research project and display our field work and goals in a user friendly interactive way. This story map will grow and change with us as we progress in our research, it will show how we will accomplish efficient search and rescue with unmanned aerial vehicles. The current story map gives an outline of how we will accomplish what our goals are, outlining our experiments and field work. When we have more experiments completed and more field work we can create maps and also interactive maps of where our field sites are located. We can also display an individual field site map and show where an individual was located from our experiment. Click on the image below to view our UAV Search and Rescue Story Map.

GIS Day Poster Last week  we presented our GIS poster rough draft to the class  to receive critiques and make necessary changes before GIS  day on November 7 th , 2019.  Below are the critiques we received from the class and Dr. Hupy,  we took into consideration all critiques and made changes we thought were necessary.  Our final poster is pictured below, click on the image to view the full-size figure.    Critiques: ·          Hupy o    Bad title o    Too much details, reword title. Explain what we’re actually doing o    Think in terms of somebody unknowledgeable ·          Jasper o    Likes layout o    Less text o    Clean, title more centered ·          Sam o    Question about comparing the ortho & Loc8 ·          Alan o    Very specific o    Under methods bigger space between certain words, look at word spacing ·          Luke M o    Doesn't like black bar o    Photo of platform? (grayscale) o    Purdue & SATT logo

Introduction What is Pix4D? Pix4D is a photogrammetry program that allows the user to generate 2D orthomosiacs, 3D surface models and point clouds with the geo-referenced imagery data they have collected. Pix4D allows for multiple different data inputs such as RGB images, thermal images and multispectral images. With Pix4D the user has the option to utilize a cloud based software and access their data and projects from multiple devices.   What Products does it generate? Pix4D generates photogrammetric models such as, but not limited to point clouds, orthomosiacs, surface and elevation models, textured 3D mesh and thermal maps.  Why is a so integral to UAS data processing? Pix4D allows the UAS user to generate products quickly and accurately from the data that was collected. Pix4D allows input from multiple common UAS sensors and does a good job at creating three dimensional models of the mission area. Pix4D does a good job at integrating flight planning and on the spo
