Target Distance

As I have to map a roof, I purchased the professional plan “Growth”. I would like clarification on the definition of “Target Distance”. Should I enter the distance between the drone and the roof or the distance between the ground and the roof? My problem is to be sure that the photo overlay I have set is on the roof and not on the ground.

    Enter the distance between the drone and the roof.

    For example:  If you have a building that is 100ft high and you want your map to be 30ft above that you would enter 130ft for the altitude and 30ft for the distance to target.  The system will automatically calculate the overlap based on your settings.

    Thank you, that parameter was very well hidden and a bit too fare away from related parameters as GSD and overlap!
