Reflectance Calibration with Phantom 4M Multispectral data (Updated 14-05-2021)

Last Update: 14.5.2021 There was some confusion in the past on how to process the Phantom 4M Multispectral data to “reflectance” level. Here a short summary for Agisoft Metashape 1.7.2 with a 50% reflectance panel from Micasense (update: now its from SphereOptics). In general: 1. the P4M sun illu. sensor works for normalizing the within flight campaign variations while 2....

Die EU Drohnenverordnung

Die neue EU Drohnenverordnung ist in Kraft getreten. Sie gilt im Prinzip bereits seit 1.1.2021. Was hat sich geändert? Einiges! Nach der neuen Verordnung sind alle derzeit im Betrieb befindlichen Drohnen keine zertifizierten Drohnen. Hier hinkt die Industrie der Verordnung hinterher. Die Verordnung differenziert in der offenen Kategorie “OPEN” nach dem Grad der Gefährdung, der von einer Drohne ausgehen könnte...

Stand Gap Analysis in the Hainich National Park between 2018 and 2020.

Some results from our stand gap analysis for July 2018 , July 2019 and July 2020 are now finished. Some figures below. There is a strong change process in the northern part of the Hainich landscape region in progress – likely dominated by forest management activities . removing the dying beech trees from the stand. Our spatial analysis indicates that...

UAV Flights in May 2020 over Hainich NP

The first UAV flights of the vegetation period took place this year at the 28th of May. We covered the test areas East of Berka v.d.H. (Burgberg & Eichenberg) and parts of the Zimmerberg area. We also did flights over the region of Hegeberg in the North-East of the national park. Overall we did 14 flights (6 with the P4R...

CIR Airphoto Classification and Planning for 2020

April 2020: Planning for the May flight campaign is in full swing. The test sites will be extended in 2020. Figure below: overview of the 2019 test areas from a presentation at DLR Bonn in 2019. We will extend this to areas in the northern Hainich (Dachsberg) and also covering the private forested areas in the northern Hainich region. At...

Phantom 4 Multispectral (RTK)

DJI did it again – the leading manufacturer of compact “of the shelve” drone solutions modified the Phantom 4 RTK and added a fully integrated multispectral camera. Those that are working with these (micro)multispectral camera systems on small UAV platforms couldnt really believe this news. DJI modified the Phantom 4 RTK (that turned out to be a game changer in...

RTK Precision Mapping of Wild Boar Maize Field Damages

As a side product of our Hainich NP forest monitoring program in summer/autumn 2019 we also mapped maize fields west of the Hainich National Park region. These fields are heavily damaged by wild boar regularly and the change is detectable already after days. The RTK Phantom that we used in September for the maize fields created very precise datasets that...

The Hainich Flight Campaign

At the end of August 2018 a consortium was initiated by Dr. C. Thiel (DLR) to start a flight campaign within the Hainich national parc area in Thuringia (DLR Jena: Dr. C. Thiel, FSU Jena: Dr. S. Hese, University Göttingen (LS für Bioklimatologie, Prof. Dr. A. Knohl / Dipl.-Ing F. Tiedemann), national parc Hainich: Manfred Grossmann & Andreas Henkel). The region is...
