What flight planning capabilities does Hammer Missions offer?

Hammer Missions provides a full suite of automated flight planning tools designed specifically for professional drone inspections, including grid mapping, roof surveys, façade inspections, waypoint missions, linear missions and more — all optimised for complete data capture and downstream processing.

Does Hammer Missions support offline flight planning?

Yes. With Hammer Missions you can plan and edit missions even when offline by caching your maps ahead of time. Once your mission is uploaded to the drone, you can execute the flight without needing a live internet connection — ideal for remote sites.

What mission types can I create in Hammer Missions?

Hammer supports 15+ mission types, including: Grid mapping Roof inspections Facade surveys Linear and corridor missions Tower and structure missions Orbits, panoramas, and waypoint paths Each mission is pre‑configured for that application, reducing manual setup and increasing consistency.

Can I link multiple missions together in Hammer Missions?

Yes — Hammer allows you to combine or link missions for larger capture operations, giving you the flexibility to plan complex flights that cover multiple mission types or asset zones in a single workflow.
