What is real-time kinematics and what it means for your drone How accurate is accurate enough? If you’re like most land surveyors, the answer is “as much as possible.” With an RTK drone, surveyors and other kinds of enterprise drone pilots can expect centimeter-level positioning accuracy with each flight. The system represents a marked improvement from satellite data on its own and can help ensure you have the accurate information you need to get the job done. What is RTK? Real Time Kinematics, or RTK for short, is a special technique for satellite positioning that can produce accurate results to...

What you need to know about DJI’s first-ever drone LiDAR payload Responding to high demand from AEC and surveying industries, the Zenmuse L1 addresses the need for a potent yet user-friendly LiDAR drone solution. Despite its presence for over half a century, the transformative potential of Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) data has only come to the forefront across industries in the past decade. LiDAR technology is now acknowledged as a pivotal element in constructing precise reality models within the surveying sector. Why is this the case? In scenarios of low light or areas covered by dense canopies, traditional aerial...
