What Drones would you like to see compatible with the Site Scan Flight App next?
We added Mavic 3E support in ArcGIS Flight earlier this year, see What's New in ArcGIS Flight here. Please suggest Mavic 3T support on the ArcGIS Flight Ideas board, and vote for the existing M3M Idea.
DJI Mavic 3E Enterprise, 3M Multispectral & 3T Thermal
Interested in what is out there for Autel Evo Max
Skydio and Harris would be fantastic
DJI Matrice 350
Here's the Astro webpage, contains a video of it in action. That's what we fly for most of our data captures. I'll DM you contact information.
@Nico We would love to see a demo, either in person or a video of this when it is actively available. Feel free to DM me details when ready.
@MikeCurtis1 Esri partner Freefly Systems is working on a Blue certified version of their Astro drone, it should be released in the near future. This aircraft is similar in size to the DJI M200 and M300 series but with a superior mapping payload. We'll be adding support for it in our Flight app shortly after it becomes available.
My agency, Rutherford County GIS, in Tennessee has used a DJI Matrice 200x UAV to capture UAV imagery for many uses within our county since 2018. Last year our State Legislature passed a law saying we cannot purchase any UAVs unless they are on the Federal Blue list of UAVs. So, anything that is on the blue list that can do similar things that the DJI 200x/300x series of UAVs can currently do would be high on our list. We have one M210v2 and it will eventually stop working and we will be in need of a replacement or close the door on our UAV services we provide our county.
I am quite surprised that there has been no mention of Skydio or Wingtra drones. What am i missing?
DJI Mavic Air 2 would be nice. I think it has great capabilities and be useful to use it with Site Scan Flight App.
Thanks for asking. I was under the impression that they were blue listed but I see they are not. We are also looking at the Parrot anafi's as well.
@WesleyTurner1, Autel being Chinese as well, why do you consider them as an alternative to DJI?
We would like to see the Autel EVO line soon. There area a number of folks switching to that platform due to the issues with Chinese drones. Next would be the Parrot Anafi lines.

Hi Matt,
Great choice on the M3E! An android application of Site Scan Flight is currently in development. As of now, DJI has only released their SDK (Software Development Kit) to Android developers and it's looking like it will only be to android developers. Once our android application is released (timeline still TBD), I would expect the M3E to be compatible.
As I just purchased a DJI Mavic Enterprise 3M, I'd love to see that become compatible. But eve more so than compatibility with the Flight App, I need the multispectral tifs to be viewable in Sitescan so I can review GCP's. That's one of my current stumbling blocks. But so far I'm loving Sitescan and I'm loving the Mavic3M.
Any & all autonomous dock options.
