mdMapper1000DG
No ground control points, less sidelap and more productivity – a true game changer!
With the mdMapper1000DG aerial solution you can conquer large surveying or mapping projects in a fraction of the time, achieve the highest level of data accuracy currently possible, use less people and equipment on jobs, enjoy significant cost savings, and by putting direct georeferencing to work there is no need for ground control points so you can truly master your geospatial data.
The mdMapper1000DG combines the resilient, powerful and best-selling md4-1000 aircraft platform with a 42.4 megapixel Sony RX1R II camera, and a compact single board module with survey grade GNSS receiver and a precisely calibrated IMU for mapping. In the field the mdMapper1000DG is operated using professional controls and telemetry, in conjunction with mdCockpit tablet software that allows you to plan your survey area and monitor flight progress at the swipe of a finger. After the flight, direct georeferencing post-processing POSPac UAV DG software can be used to achieve maximum data accuracy and efficiency. Calling this package a game changer is no exaggeration as it delivers a number of critical advantages, including:
Direct georeferencing – the most advanced aerial mapping technology (over RTK and PPK)
Reducing or eliminating the need to install GCPs
Delivering unparalleled data quality
Drastically reducing time spent on post-processing and data collection, thanks to an impressively decreased side lap
Accessing dangerous or hard to reach sites without injury risk
Achieving significant cost savings
Enabling project completion in less time, and with less people and equipment
