‌How to Shoot

Here are our recommendations for survey photography. These will help you produce the best results in the least time, though they are not requirements. They can all be violated.

- Shoot all images from a single camera

- Use a low-distortion prime lens

- If the camera has a zoom lens, do not use it at its widest setting. Reduce the field of view by 20% or so to reduce distortion

- Do not change the zoom setting from one image to the next

- All images should be the same resolution

- Shoot the images in a defined order to save time tracking (ex: take an image starting at far left, then 2 steps to the right for the next image, 2 more steps for the next, etc)
