DroneMapper Rapid

DroneMapper Rapid Photogrammetry Software

GeoWGS84 is an authorized dealer of DroneMapper RAPID that is a photogrammetry and geospatial software solution running on a Windows OS. RAPID comes with a one-year license and allows the use of a desktop-based tool rather than cloud-based photogrammetry software.

DroneMapper RAPID processes aerial imagery taken by a drone and creates geospatial products such as Digital Elevation Model (DEM), Digital Terrain Model (DTM), Digital Surface Model (DSM), and orthomosaic maps. With its desktop workflow, RAPID allows creating geospatial products using drone imagery without connecting to the cloud and uploading the information to another platform.

One of the helpful functions provided by RAPID is preview. It allows creating an almost real-time image of the surveyed territory, especially while dealing with small Areas of Interest (AOIs). A pilot can use a tablet or a laptop to view the acquired imagery and check whether the aerial data has been acquired correctly.

RAPID is compatible with workflows that require accurate image processing and georeferencing results for surveying, mapping, construction, engineering, agricultural and land management practices, and any other geospatial applications. By processing the imagery on the local machine, users will be able to control their data more effectively and create map-ready outputs for GIS and geospatial analysis workflows.

DroneMapper RAPID Specifications
