What if my sensor isn't on the list?

If your sensor is not on the list, we are incompatible with it. However, depending on the business case and our requirements, we can investigate it further.

Watch Out

DJI Matrice 30T

Infrared Image Super-resolution Mode (1280×1024) is not supported.
​

When turning on the sensor, it is necessary to deselect the default super-resolution mode. If this is not done, then the images are not compatible with the Sitemark platform and cannot be processed.
