Description
We present here suggested log sheet and acquisition checklist to help you in the data collection of data derived from Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems (RPAS) also referred more generally as drones. These logsheets and checklists have been developed as part of the Research Data Alliance (RDA) Small Uncrewed Aircraft and Autonomous Platform Data Working Group.
On the field, it is important to record key metadata to make sure you can process the data you have collected using your RPAS and they can be reused in the future.
How to use this document:
- Download the document
- Modify it to take into account your specific requirements of your survey
- Bring the templates with you on the field
- Use the template on the field to document the survey
