The Survey2 has a 16MP sensor and sharp non-fisheye lens allows you to easily capture aerial media. It captures photos on the default timer or can be sent a PWM signal through the HDMI port (see below). If you supply power to the USB port it will power on and off the camera automatically. Sized similar to a GoPro® Hero these small survey cameras can be attached to your aerial drone platform using our various mounts.

This NDVI model sees both Near Infrared 850nm and Red 660nm light. The images from this camera are commonly calibrated into an index image and then a colored lut is applied to show contrast between healthy and poor health vegetation.

The Survey2 cameras have a faster interval timer: 2 seconds for JPG mode and 3 seconds for RAW+JPG mode. (Capture speed depends on the speed of the microSD card used, see below for recommended cards). You can also trigger the photo capture using a PWM signal through the HDMI port (see triggering information below).

For best stitching results, we recommend a survey overlap of at least 70% front-lap and 70% side-lap and a maximum 5mph (8kmh) speed for every 65ft (20m) of altitude (AGL) for RAW+JPG mode, and a maximum 10mph (16kmh) speed for every 65ft (20m) of altitude (AGL) for JPG only mode.
