1. Scouting Maps - Generic
This analytic allows to generate generic scouting maps such as: RGB, VARI, NDVI, NDRE, MCARI2, CCCI, MSAVI2, CIR and PRI.
Orthomosaic (RGB sensor) or Reflectance map (multispectral camera) are required for this analytics
Note : For Multispectral camera, the scouting maps are automatically generated during the photogrammetry process
From the survey page, click on “Analytics”, select your category (Field experiment or Production field), then search for “Scouting Maps - Generic” on the left panel, and finally click on “Launch”
2. Scouting Maps - Custom
This analytic allows to generate custom scouting maps.
Reflectance map are required for this analytic.
Step 1 : From the survey page, click on “Analytics”, select your category (Field experiment or Production field), then search for “Scouting map - Custom” on the left panel, and finally click on “Launch”
Step 2 : Select a reflectance map
Step 3 : Type the formula using band names and operators then enter an output name.
| OPERATOR OR FUNCTION | STRING | FORMULA EXAMPLE |
| Sum | + | red + nir |
| Substraction | - | red - nir |
| Division | / | red / nir |
| Multiplication | * | red * nir |
| Power | ** | nir**3 |
| Square Root | sqrt(x) | sqrt(nir) |
| Exponential | exp(x) | exp(nir) |
| Natural Logarithm | log(x) | log(nir) |
| Logarithm | log(x,n) | log(nir, 4) |
| Cos | cos(x) | cos(nir) |
| Sin | sin(x) | sin(nir) |
| Tan | tan(x) | tan(nir) |
| Acos | acos(x) | acos(nir) |
| Asin | asin(x) | asin(nir) |
| Atan | atan(x) | atan(nir) |
| Pi | x * pi | red * pi |
| Parentheses | 3 * (x + y) | 3 * (red + nir) |
Step 4 : Launch Scouting Maps - Custom
After completion, you will see the deliverable appearing in the BASE LAYERS / Scouting maps section of the left panel.
From there you can use features such as Value at Point to read indice value at any position of the map, or use a Point annotation to extract values. The custom map can be exported from the Download section as well.
