Measure Ground Control

Measure Ground Control is an “all in one” drone deployment and data management software solution for UAV pilots, small businesses and large enterprises. Create a mission, plan a flight, check airspace, and process your image data in a variety of formats, such as high-quality orthomosaics, 3D maps and 3D mesh, thermal imagery, digital surface models (DSM), and many more. Manage your pilots and drone fleet, create and reuse flight plans, store and maintain fly sites, build flight schedules, run safety checklists and log flight data, as well as create customized data reports.

With the ability to navigate seamlessly between the web and mobile applications, Measure Ground Control features LAANC airspace authorization with built-in Airmap technology, so you can fly any airspace safely and FAA compliant. Process and create data products with our advanced photogrammetry and image processing featuring an integrated Pix4D toolkit, or inspect and annotate image data using our custom Scopito integration, all within the convenience of a single software application.

Measure Ground Control offers multiple flight modes including Panorama, Spotlight, POI, Profile, Trace, and Tripod. Additional features can be activated for Enterprise users. Built for universal DJI compatibility.
