A map before you leave site.
Processing runs on the controller in the truck. Live Map builds a measurable map of what you just flew about nine minutes after landing, with no bars of signal, then syncs the full survey-grade dataset when the site has bandwidth again.
What it does
Half the sites worth flying have no bandwidth. Live Map does the stitch on the controller itself, so the crew reads the map standing on the pad instead of finding out the next morning that line 14 came up short and the truck is now two hours away.
The field map is georeferenced and measurable — enough to decide where the water is sitting, whether the pad is at grade, which access road the delivery takes. When the tablet is back in range the full frame set uploads and the record gets the survey-grade orthomosaic, surfaces and volumes without anyone re-flying anything.
How it works
- 01
Land and start it
The controller reads the card directly. Nothing waits on a tower and nothing uploads first — the stitch begins on the tailgate while the batteries are still warm.
- 02
Read the field map
A georeferenced map at reduced resolution, about nine minutes after landing, with measurement on it. Enough to move a pump, re-route a haul road, or send the aircraft back up for a line that missed.
- 03
Sync when there is signal
Back in range the full frame set uploads and the survey-grade orthomosaic, surfaces and volumes land on the record — 40 minutes end to end from capture, same numbers for everyone.
