Points of interest are added to a flight plan overlaid on a map. Camera switch-on and switch-off locations are automatically added to the nearest leg of the flight plan. An observation triangle joining the point of interest and the camera on and off locations is displayed so that the user can easily visualize the range of angles from which the point of interest is viewed. The triangle may be colored and/or partially transparent. Adjustment of the camera on and off locations is possible, with the system automatically adjusting the observation triangle. In a similar way, lines of interest and curves of interest may be added to the flight plan.
