3D Map View

• This feature is available in both manual flight and mission planning modes. 
  • Users can view real‑time changes in drone altitude, while terrain altitude updates only when a DSM is imported.
     
• The green flight legs altitude is clearly visualized, along with the drone’s position tracking.
  • To highlight the expected mapping area, a light blue polygon is displayed on the ground.
    
     
• When importing DSM files, users can view the terrain relief and adjust mission planning accordingly.
  • Users can move the screen view using a two‑finger swipe gesture.
    
     
• Grey altitude indicators provide waypoint references, helping users track vertical positioning.
  • These indicators can be enabled or disabled at anytime for a customized experience. 
    
     

Cloud DSM & Basemap Import

• DSM and Basemap files can now be imported directly from the Cloud through DataDiscovery integration.
  • A stable internet connection is required.
    
     
• Users can apply site and date filters to retrieve the datasets they need. 
  • By default, DataDiscovery displays datasets from the last three months.
     
• Dataset details are briefly displayed for each mission polygon immediately after tapping on them.
  • The app automatically checks whether the selected dataset includes an available DSM or Orthophoto for download. 
    
    
    
     

Hardening Items
