The points that define the base are triangulated. For this reason it's important to make sure that the base is visible and that the surface is relatively flat.
+ +The definition of the base surface can be calculated using one of several methods, listed below:
+Method | Description | Best When | Default |
---|---|---|---|
Triangulate | Points are triangulated and a surface is linearly interpolated from the results of the triangulation | Bounds of the stockpile are visible and surface is mostly flat | ✔️ |
Plane | Fits a plane that is minimally distant from all points | Bounds of the stockpile are visible and surface is hard (e.g. cement), sloped or flat | |
Average | A plane with height set to the average height of all points | The surface is relatively flat, but with some variation (averaging helps smooth out variation) | |
Highest | A plane with height set to the maximum height of all points | Calculating fill volumes of containers or enclosures (e.g. swimming pools) | |
Lowest | A plane with height set to the minimum height of all points | Bounds of the stockpile are not visible (e.g. hidden by a wall) |

With proper data capture, GCPs and when GSD is ~1 cm / pixel, the expected accuracy should be within 1-2%.
The use of Ground Control Points is recommended as well as following all guidelines for creating successful maps with a target GSD of 1 cm / pixel.
-For the flight pattern, stockpile measurement tasks typically do not require a crosshatch pattern or an angled gimbal, due to the natural inclines of stockpile materials. Only in certain cases, such as when erosion creates steep angles on the stockpile, would a crosshatch flight pattern and angled gimbal improve results.
