Externally mounted commercial-off-the-shelf cameras were used for the first time during a September mission to evaluate UAS identification and mapping of abandoned mine land features. This utilization of a GoPro Hero 2 camera mounted on a Raven UAS platform allowed for the collection of higher-resolution imagery, which was later proven to better support structure from motion photogrammetric...
