Drone Deploy Mapping Demo Tutorial | DJI Mavic Pro 

Hello I wanaa to learn more about drones like u can u tell me what to do?

@@mostafasokkar7846 I actually bought a small Syma X5 drone to train with. If it crashes, very little damage to it because of the prop guards. Train in a very open area at first with very little, in any, wind till you get better at the controls.. I'm a licensed aircraft pilot, so that helped tremendously with my drone flight familiarization and training. Did a lot of homework watching RU-vid vids, talked to my hobby shop pro's, other drone pilots to help me determine the best drone for my operation. Ask questions. One thing about RU-vid post is that a lot of people take the time to post something that could be very helpful, but do not respond to questions. Don't let that discourage you. Email me at hagriff92@gmail.com if you have more questions.....

Each project has its own accuracy tolerance. Depends on the data required to make informed business decisions. Ground control points could have been used, but again it depends on the problem.

I will agree.

How can you change the starting point for the flight please?

Yes

I'm actually watching this while researching the same exact use case. If you have found any information regarding this I would greatly appreciate any advice or material you might have. Thanks!

Did you have your response ??

have you figured the answer out?

@@serdarklnc4759 You can use a KML file, so if you have especific coords, use them to build the boundaries of a kml file, then upload to Drone Deploy and done. Lets Fly!!

My apology. I see this question was asked and answered earlier.

可以,继续该任务就可以了。

Good question I have to go back and look for the answer I would assume so

Yes DroneDeploy is compatible with the phantom 4 pro I personally use the phantom 4 pro for mapping but I use pix4d because I am having problems installing DroneDeploy. But I am not sure if you can tell if your plants are infected or not.

Excellent question I would like to know the answer to that myself

Hey Icen roz, if I understand your questions correctly, it’s a slim market for 3D mapping with drone, so I would learn how to fly too because it makes you that much more valuable and you’re not splitting costs with the drone pilot. Don’t forget though, flying a drone for commercial operations (things that make money) requires a Part 107 certification from the FAA. You don’t need to take a full course if you’re willing to learn and experiment on your own with the software until you feel comfortable with it. Hope this helps!

I suggest that you take your part 107 training course through the pilot institute they will explain it and teach you in detail Greg is an awesome instructor with the pilot institute and he has several other courses that he will give you for free and some courses you have to pay for but it will help you tremendously along with this gentleman that's teaching the drone deploy software and how to use it to increase your revenue but I suggest you start with aerial real estate photography and videography when doing so fly in tripod mode it will slow down the reaction of your sticks so that you don't have jerky video. Or there is apps for that where you can do basically the same thing you can go on your computer and design your mission and then go out to the home or land and start the mission and take photos of the home the barn the land everything preset at altitudes and direction of camera and everything basically like drone deploy but for real estate I'm trying to think of the name of the app.its Litchi it will be a great experience for you and helping you shoot real estate I don't always use it depends on the size of the home or the property if it's a small 1500 square foot home on a small lot I just do it freehand but on a larger piece of land I will go on lychee and design a flight plan but this drone deploy app is phenomenal and the way this gentleman is teaching it is incredible thank you so much for teaching us this software. Sincerely, Welz Oliver Rocket City Aerial photography and video.

Most companies charge by hour but if it is large land I would say a round about price is anywhere between $1000-$2500 but it all depends on the company.

I charge personally by the hour in most things I do like real estate photography with a 1 hour minimum at $175 but as I learned this drone deploy software and start doing produce crops I will more than likely charge by how many acres they have with a one anchor minimum so that way you're not going out there for a hundred bucks you're getting at least 3 to $500 depending on how much you're charging for each acre of land depending on the area you live in I live in Huntsville Alabama and would be doing the outskirts of course like harvest or Madison Alabama or Tony Alabama I would probably charge $300 an acre just saying hope that helps I don't know LOL... But if I lived in Terrell Texas which is outside of Dallas Texas I would probably be charging $800 to $1,000 an acre see what I'm saying what you could do is call your competitors and act like a client and see what they charge and then charge $50 less over $25 less you don't want a lowball it too much cuz you want to keep the price up for all of you guys flying drones and trying to make a living or some extra money never lowball it too much keep the price within $50 to maybe $100 depending on the size of the job cheaper than your competitors that way you all still make good money I would start out just $25 cheaper and see if the client bites

Jd Alley yes!! Usually if you wait a day or two after a rain it will show up in orthomosaic.

That’s a great question!! It will return to home and land. Don’t move the drone. Turn off and put in new battery. Don’t close the app. Put in new battery and it will prompt you to continue flight when it boots up. It will take off where it left off from!!!

I use 5 batteries in some fields. And move the base to a closer point where it is shooting. if not, some field i would use 10 batteries. I had no problem moving it.

@@markalan1386 Cool!

Mavic 2 Pro is compatible with this program, but there is an extra camera that has infrared sensibility so in resume you can use it but you cant process a real NDVI Info. Also there is a ishue, so I recomend to have only one app open in your phone, if you have two apps of drone flights it recognize only one, so use DJI app to calibrate then close it and then use Drone deploy to connect your programed flights.

This program only work on the bigger drones. I have a holystone 510 not as nice as the more expensive but does have points gps. Follow, creat a map etc.

Good question. I've always wanted to know this too.

It’s pseudo NDVI

That's a good question I hope that somebody answers it

This is not a special camera. Many farmers and professionals in this business use NVDI cameras. They are infrared camera's that detect heat as a way to determine plant health. I am using a standard RGB camera that comes on any DJI Mavic Pro Drone. Both cameras have there good and bad point...NVDI cameras are extremely expensive and only detect heat..so they cannot be used for any other purpose than plant health. Hope this helps!!!!

thanks for clarifying.

I'm sorry for needing more clarification, but you can get that plant health stuff WITH a camera that's on a Mavic Pro or Air?!

Cameron Schmit yes!! It uses an RGB camera that comes on the Mavic Pro.

Its most likely using the visible atomospheric index OR VARI algorithm in order to test for plant health. I dont think that VARI is nearly as useful for crop health monitoring as many plants health cannot be discerned from their colour alone (visible light spectrum).Drone Deploy should let people know about this before trying to start a business centred around crop monotoring..

I can tell you it’s a very tough market to tap into. It seems as though many farmers are stuck in their old ways or already have a company doing this for them. I would highly recommend trying to find several people who would like to test the service and take it vantage of the 14 day free trial before buying the software.

@@markalan1386 Also, I am hooked up with a Fertilizer company Owner. We are doing test plots for Wheat Hay stock. The Farmers plant and the large Harvesting companies then own the plant by contract. We are now making paper from it in Starbuck, WA. Columbia Pulp. Used to be the stock had to be burned or cut and was pretty much useless. Taller stock fibers are better for paper. We are developing higher growth stock which now gets an additional $65.00 a ton for what was waste. My drone monitoring measures the Wheat height and plant health also recommending an earlier planting and later harvest.

John if you don't mind me asking which DJI drone are you flying with I have a Maverick pro well two of them thinking about getting a mavic 3 but not positive yet

Rav Jagdev it does not follow terrain. Set a s safe overall height. It will make the elevation difference.

@@markalan1386 Oh ok i see. Thanks for the info mate!

@@markalan1386 You are so correct! I had the elevation correct at the hillside at the back of our ranch and did not have my DJI Phantom Pro 4 Obsidian Higher and hit my wood fence post, $400.00 damage to the drone & had the DJI insurance luckily. If I had hiked up there it would not have been a problem or raised me max. elevation. I mention mine is a Obsidian because the white drones are harder to see in the sky but my dark gray is hard to see below the hill skyline.

Ugh

Something else I would like to know as well good question
