Introduction
The choice of drone hardware plays a pivotal role in delivering quality results Sitemark. The compatibility of specific drone models is crucial for optimal performance and data accuracy. Depending on your situation, budget and what you intend to inspect can all effect which equipment you will choose to use.
We want to make sure that we can support as many different equipment set ups as possible but making sure that this doesn't hinder our ability to deliver the results our customers expect. Below you will see a list of all of the different equipment that you can use depending on the data product you have chosen.
Important Information on Thermal Sensor data capture
⚠️ UHR/Super Resolution Thermal Imagery
The Sitemark platform is not compatible with the UHR (sometimes called Super Resolution) photo mode on any of the DJI drones.
Ensure that the sensor is 640 x 512 and not UHR (1280 x 1024). If this is not done, then the images are not compatible with the Sitemark platform and cannot be uploaded or processed.
