I have a new client who has a work environment of approx 800 acres - approx 3,200' x 3,700'. He wants to get a usable image that takes in the entire 800 acres in one shot. Its possible (at 400') to shoot multiple overlapping photos and stitch them in Photoshop for a 2D pano, but the distortion is horrible. I estimate I need to go to at least 1,000' or even 2,000' to get a usable image of the 800 acres. When I say usable, I mean no greater oblique than 20 degrees from perpendicular to the ground.
There has been only 7 (seven) Part 107.51b waivers granted. Is it a waste of my time to even consider applying for an altitude waiver?
