How to 3D map a disaster area with an Autel EVO II V2

To 3D map a disaster area with an Autel EVO II V2, fly WideBrowse (Grid) 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 large-area orthomosaic and 3D model of the damage that you can measure, compare, and share. 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 disaster response 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

Fly WideBrowse (Grid), the automated grid flight for areas over 1 acre. Turn on Cross Grids for a perpendicular second pass with better lateral coverage, and reuse location and settings from Previous Flights when you return.

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 disaster response

Orthomosaic and 3D model

Every model includes an auto-generated top-down orthomosaic alongside the textured 3D model.

Volume measurements

Calculate volumes directly from the model on paid plans.

Exports

Send GeoTIFF and LAZ files to GIS 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.

Can SkyeBrowse map areas larger than one acre?

Yes. Use WideBrowse grid flights in the Flight App on fully supported drones, or fly a manual grid with orbits and upload the video through Universal Upload.
