With SkyMap's cloud processing, you can avoid the hassles. Once the drone flight is complete, you upload the images to us. Include a GCP file (Ground Control Points) with measured coordinates for georeferencing. In the next step, a GCP adjustment (also known as ground control point refinement) is performed where the images and GCPs are matched. GCP adjustment doesn't take long, but if you want to save even more time, our specialists can do it for you.

Once the GCP adjustment is done, the cloud processing starts. It may take some time, especially if there are a lot of images. The advantage is that the entire process happens in the cloud, so you can continue working on other tasks without your computer being blocked by image processing.

Through cloud processing, orthophotos, point clouds, and 3D models can be generated. You choose the package you desire before starting the process. When the cloud processing is complete, you can visualize the result in SkyView or download the data in standard standardized file formats to further process in other programs.

SkyMap originates from the surveying industry, and we understand the importance of producing measurable and accurate results to be useful. The more accurate measurement points (GCPs) you have, the more accurate the result will be. You can verify the accuracy directly in the system when performing the GCP adjustment. Of course, the choice of drone equipment, flight method, the nature of the area, and more also play an important role. Our rule of thumb is that a drone scan should have an accuracy of +/-30 mm if it is properly executed. This means that the accuracy corresponds to a typical GPS pole.
