Here we will track the specific configuration and status of each unique BenchBot by location.
Image Collection
high overlap mode for generating orthomosaics
camera needs to be positioned 1.8 m above the pots during collection
For testing, and aiming for 50% side and font overlap, images should be spaced accordingly:
x-axis distance: 50-55 cm
y-axis distance: 38 cm
Values given below are not the actual pot/row spacing on the ground, but instead represent what should be entered into the bbotv3 GUI to achieve sufficient image overlap.
Site | Potting area dimensions | Pots per Row | Pot Spacing | Row spacing |
---|---|---|---|---|
MD (BARC) | 39m x 6.1m | 12 | 50 cm | 38 cm |
