I do a lot of orthophoto production and
could rectify the imagery if someone could get some, as well as GPS some ground
control. Since the Playa is so flat the USGS DEMs should work well enough.
We use Geomatica here. I think the
open-source GRASS GIS can orthorectify too, but I’ve never tried it.

Burning Man
When at NASA I had the
same issues. I used an expensive tool called Socket Set to get a crappy
ortho of some thermal imagery.
May I suggest a light read about photogrammetery? http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0072924543/ref=si3_rdr_bb_product/002-2767370-2520843?%5Fencoding=UTF8

skydivers) up when he did a run.

The rig itself wouldn't need any GPS itself, since it would be nearly
impossible to duplicate the altitude, location, and yaw/pitch/roll of the shot.
The images could be manually georeferenced post event by triangulating known
locations within the images.
