Geolocation

The Geolocation module handles converting points on an image to a location on the ground given telemetry from the drone. As long as the drone position and orientation is known, the camera can be pointed at the ground in any manner and the detected object’s location is also known.

Geolocation assumes yaw-pitch-roll input from the flight controller.

  • This assumption is currently included in its unit tests.

Input needs to be updated to use non-dictionary data structure.

Output is array of (longitude, latitude).

Command

Dronekit.

Action item: Task for MAVLink output to flight controller.
