The use of consumer-class drones has become a new ground image acquisition platform. This paper proposes different route planning methods based on the tilt photography principle and the characteristics of consumer-class drones, which can be divided into full-coverage routes, encircling routes, vertical routes, and contour routes. In order to achieve efficient and stable tilt image acquisition, an unmanned aerial vehicle tilt photography ground station based on the Android language was designed and programmed. This ground station can drive drones to automatically perform tilt photography according to planned tasks, significantly reducing the difficulty and workload of tilt photography technology and improving the ability of consumer-level drones to perform tilt photography and product accuracy.
