Let's visualise our orthophoto and Digital Surface Model in QGIS.

1. Start QGIS Desktop

2. Add odm_orthophoto.tif, dsm.tif and maize_plot.shp to the map canvas


Let's also add a backdrop to see more context around our study area. We're going to install the QuickMapServices plugin.

3. In the main menu go to Plugins | Manage and Install Plugins...

4. Install the QuickMapServices Plugin

5. In the main menu go to Web | QuickMapServices | Settings

6. Go to the More services tab

7. Click Get contributed pack

8. Click Save

9. In the main menu go to Web | QuickMapServices | Google | Google Satellite


10. In the same way also add the Bing Satellite layer and compare the orthophoto with both satellite images.

  • What is the projection of the products created in WebODM?
  • What is the spatial resolution of the products?
11. Now you can also add the contour lines from section 9.3 from the GeoPackage to the map canvas.
