* If a yaw angle is not available, it is recommended to test a couple captures that contain land or the shoreline. The MicaSense sensor contains an Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) that collects data on the sensor pitch, roll, and yaw; however, this data can be impacted by IMU errors, especially during turns and windy flights. You can see how much the sensor yaw angle varies by plotting the IMU metadata yaw angle over captures. An example is included in the primary_demo.ipynb.
* If you have a small dataset, you can manually go through the captures to select which ones line up with what transect to inform the yaw angle in the georeference() function. It is recommended to skip images that are taken when the UAS/sensor is turning since the IMU is prone to errors during UAS turns.
* If you have a large dataset where this can be too time consuming, we have provided functions to automatically select captures with varying yaw angles that line up with different transects. The `compute_flight_lines()` function returns a list of image captures taken in different transects that contain consistent yaw angles. This can be incorporated into the `georeference()` function to improve georeferencing and mosaicking.
