How to 3D map a building or block for tactical planning with a DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise

To 3D map a building or block for tactical planning 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 model of the target area with Line of Sight, sun angle, and coverage analysis for briefing. 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 tactical 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.

Crowd Counter on the RC Pro

The Flight App on the DJI RC Pro includes Crowd Counter: take a picture and it counts the people in it in seconds. Public Safety & Enterprise customers get unlimited counts, and other plans get 3 free counts per day.

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.

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.

What does Line of Sight show?

Line of Sight colors areas visible from an observer point green and blocked areas red. A second observer adds a 2-way comparison. It is included with Pro models and Public Safety & Enterprise.
