Getting started with ArcGIS Drone2Map
Strictly by pre-registration only
What is this course about?
ArcGIS Drone2Map is the desktop app for your geographic information system (GIS) drone mapping needs.
Use any modern drone to capture high-resolution imagery where and when you need it.
Immediately after the flight in the field, process images on your laptop and perform drone analytics on your natural-colour, thermal infrared or multispectral datasets.
As part of the ArcGIS system, Drone2Map provides easy access to a range of tools and capabilities for accurate mapping and geospatial analysis.
As a 2D and 3D photogrammetry app, Drone2Map lets you create the outputs you need — including orthomosaics, 3D point clouds and textured meshes — and then easily share them with your ArcGIS organisation for greater collaboration and awareness.
