How it works
Four steps, start to finish:
- Upload. Drop in the photos from a survey. Drone images are the usual source, but any geotagged camera works.
- Choose. Pick which outputs you need and at what resolution.
- Process. The job runs on our render nodes. You can close the tab.
- Use the results. View and measure in the browser, download the files, or send a link to a client.
What you get back
Six outputs, all in standard formats:
- Orthomosaic map. A measurable aerial map. GeoTIFF.
- Digital Surface Model. Height of everything on the site. GeoTIFF.
- Digital Terrain Model. Height of the bare ground. GeoTIFF.
- 3D point cloud. The site in three dimensions. LAZ.
- NDVI vegetation map. Vegetation health, from multispectral imagery. GeoTIFF.
- Thermal map. Surface temperature, from radiometric imagery. GeoTIFF.
NDVI and thermal require a Pro plan. See pricing.
Who uses it
- Surveyors. Base maps and terrain models without a workstation.
- Construction teams. Progress documentation and earthwork volumes.
- Farmers and agronomists. Crop monitoring with NDVI.
- Property and building professionals. Roof and facade inspection, with thermal where needed.
Where to start
- Have a flight ready? Upload it now, no account needed for that step. See starting without an account.
- Still planning the flight? Read flight basics first. Output quality is decided in the air, not in the software.
