| How the data were acquired | In order to capture visual content and the associated GPS information, the Insta360 Pro2 camera is utilized. The aforementioned camera is a device equipped with six ultra-wide-angle lenses, which allow for the recording of 360° scenes with a coverage angle of 200° and a resolution of 3840x2160 for each lens. To enhance the accuracy of GPS data received by the camera's internal GPS unit, an external antenna has been placed on the GPS socket of the camera. For the purpose of real-time camera control, an antenna has been connected to the RF socket of the wireless access point, and a user-friendly application for survey devices has been employed. This application provides a seamless and convenient means of operating the camera, ensuring the acquisition of high-quality data. |
| Data format | Raw |
| Description of data collection | The camera has been mounted on a vehicle using a suction cup base, affixed to the roof of the car. An application specifically designed for wireless remote sensing and real-time camera control has been employed, enabling the specification of both the number of frames per second and the frame resolution size. To ensure the acquisition of unique and relevant footage, precise routes have been carefully planned and implemented beforehand. |
