Preemptive security

The most secure way to capture drone data. With DroneDeploy’s Dock Shield security offering, your data goes directly from the dock to trusted DroneDeploy servers in the U.S. via a secure tunnel.

High accuracy, by default

With DroneDeploy, you get the most consistently accurate data of any drone solution. Built-in RTK provides on-site GPS corrections, so every flight and every map processed is accurate by default.

One-click flight

One click and Dock Automation by DroneDeploy does the rest.

No charging, no batteries, no SD cards, no controllers – and no need to deal with takeoff and landing.

Capture 10x the data from your docked drone – with 10% the effort

66% of the time your teams spend on collecting drone data is wasted on manual processes.

It’s time to get a docked drone solution that saves you precious man hours – and gets you back to the meaningful work your boss cares about.

Go from

Tedious, manual work

Your field teams already work long hours – which means manually capturing aerial data becomes just another task on an ever-growing list

Fully automated workflows

High accuracy by default – cloud processing that leverages the built-in-RTK to provide you with cm-level accuracy allowing you to compare over time or to design

Go from

Misaligned data

Your drone data doesn’t align with historical captures, and you’re finding it hard to compare captures against design.

All data integrated into one platform

One login to automate every stage of reality capture. Plan, capture, upload and visualize data with the only fully integrated docked drone solution.

Go from

App fatigue and team burnout

You try to keep it simple for your team, as they’ve already learned too many software platforms.

Accelerated productivity

DroneDeploy’s flight planning executes your docked drone flights simply and safely. It is automatically prepared for flight with fully charged batteries, SD card at the ready, and the dock is always where it needs to be.

Go from

Data anxiety

Your IT team values data security. And you need a trusted solution that works for you – and is secure for everyone.

Fully secure, by default

Simplicity you can trust – DroneDeploy’s enterprise-grade security protocols mean data is sent directly from your dock to secure servers in the U.S.

I got a $396,000 change order down to $150,000 by having more regular, accurate maps. Once you get a drone dock, you can't go back!
