Abstract

Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is a new platform used in various applications such as landslide monitoring, agriculture, mapping, traffic control, mining, and others. In the photogrammetry survey, the use of UAV is cheaper and more effective for 3-dimensional modelling compared with traditional photogrammetry and Light Detection and Ranging (LIDAR). The ability of UAV to acquire data at a different altitude below the cloud coverage and easy to control has made it one of the most popular platforms in surveying applications. The objective of this paper is to count the numbers of the oil palm tree and define the most suitable flight attitude for tree counting based on the different UAV processing software. The study area is located at Felda Laka Temin in Chuping, Perlis. The comparison of flight altitude is 100m and 200m processed in Agisoft PhotoScan and Pix4D Mapper software. The analysis has been done with errors in Standard Deviation and Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) of Ground Control Point (GCP) which are generated using two different software.
