technical characteristics

Achieve the acquisition of high-resolution images.

UAV can collect high-resolution images, which can make up for the shortcoming that satellite remote sensing often can't get images because of cloud cover, and solve the problems of long revisit period and untimely emergency of traditional satellite remote sensing.
