E38, Thanks for all your helpful videos. This is awesome. I have a question and a request though... I have a survey I performed in wsg84 on the drone, and then took the ground control using my local state plan coordinated. I converted the WSG84 to my local state plane without issue, however while on site I shot in the surveyors corners and asked for his data to check my work. I discovered that there was about a 5' discrepancy between his point and mine. After some diagnosis I found that this is because he was converting to ground from grid and using a scale factor. I am newish to all of this and did not know that was a thing. My understanding is that I can accommodate a scale factor before the survey, but is there a workflow to convert the points collected after the points are collected. Again I appreciate your help! Thanks!
There isn't anything in Flow that would let you do this, but other data collector software like FieldGenius and XPAD will give you that scale factor, so you can go grid to ground.
