Hi, how’s it going? Let me introduce myself — I’m a land surveyor engineer from Argentina and I work in photogrammetry. I never had any issues using Pix4D Capture and Pix4D Capture Pro. They’ve now been discontinued — the first one is completely inaccessible, and in the second they removed the base map and there’s no way to replace it. I’m now unable to work. Does anyone know of an alternative for creating automatic grid-based photogrammetry missions for the Parrot Anafi Work? Thanks in advance for reading!
Urgent: Need Alternative to Pix4D Capture for Parrot Anafi

Hi everyone. I also have a Parrot Anafi that I use to generate aerial photogrammetry. I'm trying the solution with QGC. I use an Android smartphone and don't have the "flight plan" (and they no longer allow me to purchase one). What can I do? Thanks.
I'm not seeing any remaining, relatively easy options for mapping/photogrammetry mission planning for the Anafi 4K.
Happy to be corrected, but that's what I see in my searches.

Hello. I use QGC with no problems. You do not need Anafi Flight Plan for that. Just make the flight plan in QGC, connect to Anafi and execute the plan from QGC. I found it better not to start the native Anafi app in the mobile phone, just control the drone from QGC (you can interrupt the plan if needed and control the drone from the screen joysticks and screen interface in QGC if needed). If you start the native Anafi app in the mobile phone, it might stop executing the plan properly (skip pictures and so on). All I learned about this solution is in the Anafi + QGroundControl forum that you can find in this very site. Good luck!
Now that Pix4Dcapture is terminated, if you want to use your Anafi 4K again for mapping or modeling, try the attached procedure.
I've done several test flights with QGC. There were a variety of surprises that caused updates to the initial procedure version.
If you find an error in the procedure, let others know by adding a comment in this thread.
Happy mapping! Again.

This YouTube video provides a nice overview, since some version of QGC is featured.
