Hi Curtis, Firstly, great blog and thanks for sharing your thoughts + code with the world! I recently used this script and found that the make_tile_name function didn't work for the location I was attempting to create a DEM for: -35.3630561829 149.1654510498. This PR gets the script working for my area of interest.

Hi Samuel, I'm not sure if you'll see this comment here, but if you are interested in my open-source mapping/stitching/fitting work, it is still 'in progress' and there are still open issues. I'm happy to discuss it further if you are interested. This repository also includes my code to do augmented reality visualizations such as: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AnNkrWSneAw I am stumbling little by little into this field and learning as I go.

Hi, Everything I do is still 'in progress' ;). I haven't properly explored all of your image stitching code just yet, but it is certainly an area of interest for me. Do you have an end goal in mind, or are you learning the topic through experimentation?

I'm a Aero-mech eng by degree and work primarily on UAS hardware. However, over the last 5 or so years, though my personal projects, I have slowly been getting into mapping and ownship localisation for UAS using RF and visual systems (I work with the ArduPilot codebase).

I have had a good look at your augmented reality work and would like to port the tool to work with ArduPilot datalogs if you are okay with that (code will be freely available via my github)? FYI am using the SRTM code in a simple RF propagation simulator I'm working on for the navigation work. Combined with the NavPy library its quite a useful, lightweight set of tools!

I usually hang around at https://gitter.im/ArduPilot/ardupilot/VisionProjects where we are attempting to integrate vision system estimates with the ArduPilot EKF.

Anyway, great work and blog!
