How to fly a drone scan that reconstructs
Overlap, altitude, and flight patterns for clean geometry.
For drone pilots & reality-capture professionals
You capture reality. Now deliver all of it.
Turn a single flight into a photorealistic 3D environment your clients can explore, measure, and share.
The process
From your flight to a living, working model.
One continuous flow, and it starts the moment you take off.
01 · Capture
It all starts with your flight.
Everything downstream depends on how you fly. The right overlap, altitude, and control turn a routine flight into a capture that reconstructs beautifully.
02 · Build
Your images become photoreal 3D.
Structure-from-Motion and Gaussian splatting turn your frames into a photorealistic, measurable model of the site.
03 · Understand
A model that answers questions.
The finished model is searchable and measurable. Your clients find assets, pull measurements, and get answers without another site visit.
04 · Deliver & collaborate
Hand over something they can actually use.
Share a link your client opens in the browser. They walk the site, mark it up, and bring their whole team in.
