Supported Drones - Flight + Processing
Below we've listed the drone type, whether it's supported for flight, processing, or both (indicated by the ✓ for supported), and the mobile compatibility. Drones listed as supported for processing only cannot be flown autonomously in the app, however, you can still upload and process imagery and data collected on these models. For more information on data processing, visit this page.
Drones denoted with a * may require additional information about what features they support or additional notes on how we can best support that hardware. Please click on the link below to learn more.

Data Processing Compatibility
The DroneDeploy Map Engine lets paying customers upload and process your imagery from any UAV setup with embedded geotags. Once the data has been processed, you will also be able to make use of all the additional DroneDeploy functionality (such as sharing, annotations, and analysis).
Processing imagery from the Phantom 4 Multispectral, MicaSense, SenseFly, Mavic Air 2 or the WingtraOne is officially supported.
RTK processing from DJI drone image sets not taken in DroneDeploy can be processed on Individual plans and above.
Using Map Engine does not require any app, just data.
All images must have latitude, longitude and altitude in the GPS EXIF data
All images should be facing the area of interest
All images should have significant overlap (more than 60% side and frontlap, 75% for agricultural or homogeneous imagery)
There must be at least 10 images
