accuracy, simplicity, precision, and all the additional possibilities it offers

As a full-time FAA Part 107 UAS Pilot, I fly drones daily in the Pacific Northwest for public safety purposes. Additionally, I own a drone photography business and often complete mapping and photography services in my off time. I have used many different mapping solutions in my role and DroneDeploy offers a solution that has been easy to integrate into our routine. DroneDeploy offers a user friendly platform that allows you to preplan missions with ease from their main website or directly on the drone controller. The drone flies the automated flight path and does so with smart features such as picking the closest starting based on where you launch and automatically landing from that same spot. Their latest RTK feature has been unequivocally the best feature they could have added for small business owners who reside in states that RTK access is a membership and comes at a high cost if not using DroneDeploy. I think where DroneDeploy separates itself from the competition is in the uploading and processing phase. You see, with most other mapping solutions, you have to purchase a "supercomputer" to process the massive data you just collected. Your gaming laptop won't cut it, unfortunately. The cost of these supercomputers can not only be high, but just like any technology, they have to be replaced and upgraded every few years. DroneDeploy offers cloud-based processing meaning that you just have to upload your mapping images and let the cloud-based processing take care of the rest. No supercomputers, no special software that has to be downloaded onto each computer. Because DroneDeploy is cloud-based, our team can access each of the processed models via online access. Our team does not have to download software onto each of their computers and now we can better collaborate on the completed models to identify and review key parts for our public safety responsibilities. DroneDeploy has been implemented with ease into our team's daily function and we are beyond thrilled we have obtained this product. DroneDeploy has amazing and quick customer support who respond when you have questions about their product.
