How to 3D map a disaster area with a Skydio X10
To 3D map a disaster area with a Skydio X10, fly a manual grid with orbits in its native app, 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. Set scale with the Scale Tool and a known measurement, and Public Safety & Enterprise models reach 0.1 inch accuracy without ground control points.
Applies to the Skydio X10, X2, S2, and S1.
Capture the disaster response with the Skydio X10
Manual flight
The SkyeBrowse Flight App does not support the Skydio X10, so fly it in its native app. Fly a manual grid over the area and combine it with orbits around key features. Commercial accepts up to 3 videos per model (10GB each) and Public Safety & Enterprise accepts up to 10 videos per model (100GB each).
Scale the model
SkyeBrowse georeferences drone video from DJI .SRT and Autel .ASS subtitle files. For Skydio X10 video without one of those files, set scale with the Scale Tool using a known measurement, such as a tape you placed in the scene before the flight.
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 Skydio X10?
No. Fly the Skydio X10, X2, S2, and S1 manually in the native app and upload the MP4 or MOV video through Universal Upload at app.skyebrowse.com.
How do I get accurate measurements from Skydio X10 video?
SkyeBrowse georeferences drone video from DJI .SRT and Autel .ASS subtitle files. For Skydio X10 video without one of those files, set scale with the Scale Tool using a known measurement, such as a tape you placed in the scene before the flight.
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.
