How to 3D map a building for a fire pre-plan with a DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise
To 3D map a building for a fire pre-plan with a DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise, fly SkyeBrowse (Orbit) or WideBrowse (Grid) with Side Scan in the SkyeBrowse Flight App on the DJI RC Pro, then upload the video to SkyeBrowse. SkyeBrowse processes it in the cloud at about one minute per minute of video and returns a 3D pre-plan model with NFPA-170-style symbols and a CAD-ready site plan your crews can open in a browser. Upload the drone's .SRT 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 DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise (M3E) and Mavic 3 Thermal (M3T). The same workflow applies to the DJI Matrice 4T (M4T), Matrice 4E (M4E), and M4TD, and to the DJI Mini 4 Pro.
Capture the fire pre-incident planning with the Mavic 3 Enterprise
Fly with the DJI RC Pro
The Flight App runs on the Mavic 3 Enterprise with the DJI RC Pro. Sideload the Android APK from the SkyeBrowse download page onto the controller.
Automated flight
Fly SkyeBrowse (Orbit) mode around the structure. When the lot around it matters too, fly WideBrowse (Grid) and add Side Scan, an orbital pass that captures facades and verticality.
Georeference the model
Turn on video subtitle (.SRT) recording in the DJI camera settings before takeoff. Upload the .SRT file with the video and SkyeBrowse georeferences the model automatically.
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 fire pre-incident planning
Pre-plan symbols
The Icons tool includes an NFPA-170-style fire pre-plan set covering hydrants, fire alarm control panels, suppression equipment, and facility markers.
AI Site Plan (CAD) and AI Floor Plans
Trace the orthophoto into a CAD-ready site plan and generate interior floor plans in seconds, then export DXF or GeoJSON when available.
Sun & Shadow
Simulate sunlight and shadows on the building at any date and time using weather-aware lighting for the model's location.
Topographic Map
Overlay elevation contour lines to read grade changes around the site.
Frequently asked questions
Does the SkyeBrowse Flight App support the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise?
Yes. SkyeBrowse fully supports the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise (M3E) and Mavic 3 Thermal (M3T): the Flight App flies automated SkyeBrowse (Orbit) and WideBrowse (Grid) missions with the DJI RC Pro.
How do I get accurate measurements from Mavic 3 Enterprise video?
Turn on video subtitle (.SRT) recording in the DJI camera settings before takeoff. Upload the .SRT file with the video and SkyeBrowse georeferences the model automatically.
Which SkyeBrowse plans include the pre-plan tools?
AI Floor Plans, Sun & Shadow, and the Topographic Map are included with Pro models and Public Safety & Enterprise. AI Site Plan (CAD) is a Premium tool.
