Hello, I'm wondering if it's possible via the MSDK5 to get the latitude and longitude of the ground position for where the camera is pointing? Is this provided via the MSDK5? Or would we need to do our own calculations for this?

Thanks,

  The SDK itself cannot obtain the latitude and longitude position of a specific point in the camera. However, some cameras have LiDAR, which can roughly obtain the position information of a fixed point in the camera, such as H20.

  Thank you! When using cameras such as H20, is it possible to retrieve this rough position information?

  The laser measure function of H20 can obtain the position information of the camera's center of gravity target. It is important to note that there is a certain margin of error in this position. The usage instructions are mentioned at the end of the article：https://sdk-forum.dji.net/hc/en-us/articles/9125637605913-Chapter-9-Camera If you have used laser ranging on Pilot 2, you can better understand this feature.
