UAV Flight Planning and Control

UAV Flight Planning and Control Plan > Check > Fly > Report Easy to use UAV flight planning, control and reporting for airborne mapping Easy to use planning and flight control Maptek™ FlightControl provides simple, efficient tools to program and conduct autonomous UAV flights for mining, industrial and agricultural airborne mapping projects.

The Maptek FlightControl system provides tools for integrated infield job planning Dedicated workflow on 3D terrain, preflight checks, real time flight monitoring and control. The system • Define terrain with DTED data features an intelligent, easy to use workflow for selecting flight location and digitising the area of interest, including irregular areas. • Digitise flight area, including irregular areas • Cache maps for offline use A checklist guides you through safety and technical requirements leading up to • Set ground sampling distance and take off. View the flight path in real time and display critical UAV telemetry data for photo overlap altitude, attitude and battery usage. • Optimise flight for wind conditions FlightControl allows you to conduct multiple flights over vast areas. Easily divide • Plan safe descent and landing points flights into segments at any stage to allow batteries to be swapped. • View and export flight eportsr A rugged tablet presents you with streamlined options on a high contrast screen for ease of use in the field. Easily capture and export reports for reviewing and auditing scene coverage, photographic overlap and regulatory compliance data.

FlightControl benefits Intelligent, easy to use tools • Simple, efficient UAV flight planning for airborne mapping for efficient planning and • Plan missions around environmental conditions control of autonomous flight • Monitor photograph overlap status while in flight survey projects • Flexibility to split flights into segments at any time • Link to your Mapbox account to display latest imagery • Easily capture and export data for QA/QC in Maptek FlightDeck • Maintain flight logs for compliance reporting
