    Plan capture with confidence

    Getting resolution and coverage right at the planning stage is what makes a model measurable later. These calculators help you work out the settings that determine data quality, so you avoid a return visit.

    What you can calculate

    • Ground sampling distance (GSD) — the real-world size each pixel represents, and the main lever on how small a defect you can resolve.
    • Flight and capture parameters — altitude, overlap, and related settings for consistent, repeatable capture.

    Use these before you fly

    Run the numbers before capture so the resulting model supports the measurements and AI analysis you'll need.
