How to 3D map a crash scene with an Autel EVO II V2

To 3D map a crash scene with an Autel EVO II V2, fly SkyeBrowse (Orbit) mode in the SkyeBrowse Flight App on iOS, then upload the video to SkyeBrowse. SkyeBrowse processes it in the cloud at about one minute per minute of video and returns a measurable 3D model and top-down orthomosaic of the crash scene that you can measure, diagram, and export. Upload the drone's .ASS subtitle file with the video to georeference the model, and Public Safety & Enterprise models reach 0.1 inch accuracy without ground control points.

Applies to the Autel EVO II Pro, 6K, 8K, Dual, and 640T in their V1 and V2 versions.

Capture the crash reconstruction with the EVO II V2

iOS only

The Flight App supports the EVO II V2 on iOS only, so fly from an iPhone or iPad.

Automated flight

Open the SkyeBrowse Flight App and fly SkyeBrowse (Orbit) mode, the automated 2-orbit flight for scenes under 1 acre. If the scene stretches past 1 acre, switch to WideBrowse (Grid).

Georeference the model

Turn on .ASS subtitle recording on the Autel aircraft before takeoff. Upload the .ASS file with the video and SkyeBrowse georeferences the model automatically.

Autel setup tutorial

Follow the SkyeBrowse Autel EVO II and Max 4T tutorial to enable .ASS subtitle files for georeferencing.

Process the video

Upload the MP4 or MOV file at app.skyebrowse.com. Processing runs at about one minute per minute of video, and most models are ready 5 to 10 minutes after upload. Public Safety & Enterprise models reach 0.1 inch accuracy and Commercial models reach 0.5 inch, with no ground control points.

Outputs and measurements for crash reconstruction

Distance, area, and angle

Measure skid marks, vehicle positions, and roadway geometry directly on the 3D model or orthomosaic.

Crush & Claims Analysis

Identify each vehicle, align an undamaged reference model with the damaged scan, and review crush depths, CDC classification, and derived delta-V with stated assumptions. Free on every plan through October 31, 2026, then included with Public Safety & Enterprise models.

Factual Diagram

On Public Safety & Enterprise models, generate a court-ready PDF with a top-down overview, sketch page, annotations, measurements, scale bar, and compass when available.

Exports

Download LAZ, GLB, OBJ, USDZ, GeoTIFF, and CAD files for forensic and CAD software on export-enabled models.

Frequently asked questions

Does the SkyeBrowse Flight App support the Autel EVO II V2?

Yes. SkyeBrowse fully supports the Autel EVO II Pro, 6K, 8K, Dual, and 640T in their V1 and V2 versions: the Flight App flies automated SkyeBrowse (Orbit) and WideBrowse (Grid) missions on iOS only.

How do I get accurate measurements from EVO II V2 video?

Turn on .ASS subtitle recording on the Autel aircraft before takeoff. Upload the .ASS file with the video and SkyeBrowse georeferences the model automatically.

Does SkyeBrowse determine how a crash happened?

No. SkyeBrowse documents and measures the scene. AI approach-path predictions are editable hypotheses for review, and AI Factual Diagram drafts neutral factual descriptions only. Neither establishes fault, speed, or cause.

How accurate is a SkyeBrowse crash scene model?

Public Safety & Enterprise models reach 0.1 inch accuracy and Commercial models reach 0.5 inch, without ground control points. Placing a known-size object in the scene gives you a check measurement.
