TCAS Training — Course 06 · Geospatial
Interactive Web Orthomosaic
Deliver the map as a link: web-optimize the raster in QGIS, export a qgis2web Leaflet package, and QC it in a browser.
Included in the Professional 2D Mapping System — $499 ($744 individually), and in the Complete Mastery System ($799 introductory).
Prelaunch: online checkout is not open yet. The complete 15-course Rev. 3 curriculum is written and finalized — join the launch list and we will email enrollment details, pricing confirmation, and availability the moment it opens.
What You Will Produce
A complete qgis2web Leaflet web map package of your orthomosaic with OpenStreetMap context and layer toggle, verified in a browser and ready to insert into a website.
Who This Is For
- Operators who want a deliverable that markets itself
- Pilots serving clients who will never install GIS software
Prerequisites & Required Equipment
- Course 05 or equivalent QGIS familiarity
- qgis2web plugin installed
What You Will Learn
- Raster > Conversion > Translate to a web-optimized georeferenced TIFF
- The Steele Creek reference resize: 37,494 x 31,380 down to 9,000 x 7,599 using -outsize 9000 7599 -r lanczos
- Building the map in qgis2web with Leaflet and an OpenStreetMap basemap
- Exporting the complete folder and understanding every file in it
- Browser QC: alignment, zoom and pan behavior, raster visibility, layer toggle
- Preserving the entire exported package instead of moving loose files
- Inserting the finished package into a website
Hands-On Assignment
Web-optimize your orthomosaic, export a qgis2web package, QC it in a browser, and place it on a page.
Required Final Deliverable / Success Criteria
- Raster aligns correctly and stays visible across zoom levels
- Layer toggle works and the full extent fits on load
- Complete export folder preserved intact
Planned Course Materials
The complete 15-course Rev. 3 curriculum is written and finalized. Online delivery, downloads, and checkout are being set up now — course files are not downloadable today. Join the launch list and we will email you when enrollment opens.
- Structured workflow training manual (Rev. 3 curriculum — written and finalized, delivered at launch)
- Exact verified reference settings, clearly separated from job-dependent decisions
- Printable field or processing checklist (delivered at launch)
- Project-folder template with the TCAS naming convention (delivered at launch)
- QA pass/fail release criteria for the final deliverable
- Troubleshooting notes from real failures on completed TCAS workflows
- Planned at launch: practice dataset where licensing allows
- Web map export and QC notes
Secure card checkout through Square is being connected. Until it is live, submit an enrollment request and TCAS will reserve your seat and send a payment link.
Paid courses can include a TCAS Certificate of Completion. It is a course-completion credential documenting the workflow you finished and the deliverable you produced — it is not an FAA certificate, surveying license, engineering credential, or any regulatory or professional certification.
An RTK FIX status alone is not proof of validated absolute accuracy. Projects that require survey-grade or control-based accuracy need appropriate ground control, independent validation, and licensed professionals where legally required. Students are taught to distinguish visualization and photogrammetry products from products that require validated survey control or licensed professional sign-off.
TCAS training is independent professional-development training and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the FAA, DJI, QGIS, Blender, Cesium, Apple, or other manufacturers, software providers, or professional licensing boards unless expressly stated. Completion does not grant an FAA certificate, surveying license, engineering credential, or other professional license.
