Additional Information

The measurement tools in Drone2Map are 3D Measurement tools that take the elevation of the Digital Surafce Model (DSM) or Digital Terrain Model (DTM) into account while calculating the results. The elevation profile tool uses planar measurements which do not take the DSM or DTM into account. To get similar results between the Elevation Profile tool and the Measure tools, create the DTM and use it as the elevation source in the Measure tools. This creates a bare earth surface and return distances similar to the planar distance returned from the Elevation Profile tool.
