  • A 64-bit Computer with Ubuntu 16.04 or higher.
  • 15 GB free disk space.
  • 8GB USB Drive (USB 2.0 is fine. USB 3.0 is highly recommended. More storage space is recommended/required when using persistent mode) or an empty DVD.

./envsetup.sh

An ISO file named opendronemap.iso will be generated at the end of this step if this step was completed successfully.

If you just want to use the stock LiveODM ISO without making changes, simply flash opendronemap.iso with your favorite program (see Flashing the ISO), plug the USB onto your computer, reboot and you're done! If you want to customize the ISO, instead follow these additional steps:

Then wait. When it's done, the opendronemap.iso file will be ready to be flashed.
