TARGET LOCATOR

Target Locator — Drone Camera Geolocation

TARGET LOCATOR

Camera geolocation
Drone telemetry (read from controller app)
Paste or type exactly as shown on the drone app. Any precision (10m–1m) works.
Gimbal/camera pointing direction, true north bearing.
0° = level with horizon, 90° = straight down. If your gimbal readout shows negative pitch (e.g. −35°), enter 35.
Guesstimate. Positive = target is higher than launch point (e.g. building roof, hillside). Leave at 0 if unknown / flat ground.
Estimated target location
Horiz. distance
Slant range
Est. error radius
Uncertainty inputs
Error radius combines range error (from altitude + angle uncertainty) and cross-track error (from heading uncertainty) as a rough circular estimate — treat it as a search radius around the point, not a precise bound.
Assumes flat terrain at the entered target elevation and a straight optical line of sight — not corrected for obstructions.
Coordinates give the point at the center of the camera frame. Off-center targets need manual field-of-view correction.
