Target Info Panel

The Target Info Panel displays the coordinates for the current point source (e.g. Laser Target, DEM Target, or Aircraft Location). The Target Info panel is located on the right side of the pilot screen.

Change Target Source

There are three coordinate source options available for the Target Info Panel. These include Laser Rangefinder, DEM Ground Intercept, and Aircraft Location.

Coordinate Source

../../_images/laser_target1.png
Laser Rangefinder
Displays the coordinates of the center of the camera using the laser range finder.
This is more accurate than the DEM Ground Intercept Target. This option is only available for
for drones that are equipped with a laser rangefinder (e.g. M30T, Matrice 4, etc)

This method does not require an internet connection as a DEM model is not required.
../../_images/dem_ground_intercept.png
DEM Ground Intercept
Displays the coordinates of the center of the camera using the camera direction, aircraft
location and digital elevation model. This option is less accurate than the laser target and
requires the camera to be pointing down at least 20 degrees towards the ground. The aircraft
should be at least 10m above the ground. This methods requires an internet connection to
download the DEM data for the area being flown.
../../_images/aircraft_location.png
Aircraft Location
Displays the current coordinates of the drone. This is useful for displaying the location of
the drone itself, rather than a target on the camera.

You can change the source for the Target Info panel from the left sidebar by selecting the desired option from the Point Target Source section.

Coordinate Formats

The Target Info panel can display coordinates in a variety of formats, including Latitude/Longitude, MGRS, UTM, and grid references.
