What is the Difference Between Pix4D, Drone Deploy, and DJI Terra? – DSLRPros Official Blog

Aerial mapping has come a long way in recent years, both in terms of overall map quality and what’s possible with the images and types of maps produced.

The relative ease and decreased price point of creating these superior maps has also been a game changer in the field of aerial mapping, especially with the advent of drones and rapidly developing sensor and imaging technology.

As a result, aerial mapping is being utilized in a broader range of industries than ever before, changing the way businesses and organizations monitor assets, inspect crops, measure stockpile volume, and even go about rescue efforts.

For these many specialized mapping applications, there are several excellent options available for image processing software that can turn aerial data into valuable maps. The best software for any given situation will of course be dependent on the industry, the type of aerial imagery available for input, and the desired outcome.

A few of the leading programs available in the drone mapping industry are Pix4D, DroneDeploy, and DJI Terra, each having its own advantages and disadvantages depending on a number of factors including price, sensor/image compatibility, and product output.
