Flying as a passenger in our airplane is zero fun. You have to sit at a funny angle because the control panel for the camera is right where the comfortable spot would be. There is no back seat. I went up once and that was enough fun. Our pilot often spends the entire day essentially "mowing the yard" flying back and forth over a site that is almost never interesting. Long hours sitting in a Cessna 206 just does not sound glamorous or fun.
Back on the ground we set up a job on the computer and click on Start. There is a lot of tweaking the final output depending on what the customer ordered.
I just received an order for a reprint for one job we did last summer. It took me longer to write the price quote and then the invoice than to pull it back up and print it.
It is cool to see a mapping job complete and see how well the ground control points match the final orthos or surface model or digital terrain model.
