Ground Sample Distance

This exercise deals with finding the Ground Sample Distance (GSD), or ‘spatial resolution’ for a given sensor with a given set of operational parameters. At what  altitude above ground level (AGL) you will need to fly to collect imagery with 1.5cm GSD given a lens focal length of 18.8777 mm. At that altitude, what is […]
