Who benefits?

Collecting aerial imagery has historically required professionals well trained in GIS or unmanned aerial systems. DataMapper InFlight is changing the game by allowing anyone with a DJI drone to seamlessly complete an aerial survey. Post-processing, the map can be analyzed using sophisticated, yet easy-to-use, algorithms. Current apps include volume measurements, NDVI & other vegetative indices, plant count, plant height and much more. Work in agriculture, energy or insurance? This app is a perfect fit within your existing workflow.
