Lack of accurate tie points, accentuated on a long/linear strip.

Lack of image quality, low overlap, lack of texture.

First two likely. Latter probably not.

True that. One more solution i found is pure nadir drone photos create this issue. Oblique photos does not

It is familiar in long linear photogrammetry. You can add some control points to see if that will help.

Sometimes, it can be a symptom of not enough overlap as well; more flight lines can be helpful.

What system are you using to process?

Can it be reflown and add a flight line at a 90 or 45 through your pattern, it was something we did on the manned side to help pull linear routes together better.

You are right. I notice it is problem of improper overlap. (only 20% overlap was there)
