UAV vs Drone Start

UAV-ASIGN is an ASIGN application that specifically targets operations with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), or drones, used to interactively communicate visual content to an ASIGN server in a remote location. • • • Feedback from DJI pilots is always highly appreciated! If you are interested in using UAV-ASIGN please contact us for a user account at: contact@ansur.no • • • UAV-ASIGN targets use with UAV pilots who wish to share photos & video taken from a UAV while UAV is in flight. It works specifically with many DJI drones, such as the Inspire or Phantom models, by controlling the camera of the drone to take photos or video, downloading the media and sending an interactive preview to a remote server where authorized people can view it in real time and pull full precision optical details, seconds after the photo or video was taken. UAV-ASIGN can also be used as a flying camera, attached to a capable UAV, to take photos at desired intervals in selected geo-zones, and share them with a remote viewer via a web browser. UAV-ASIGN can also use the iOS camera manually on the ground to share information of the surrounding areas prior to flight – or in other situations. All observations are geo-tagged and can be seen in maps and integrated with professional GIS systems. ** ASIGN is about communication of visual content in terms of photos and video under critical conditions. Applying a two-step interactive approach ASIGN can save as much as 99% of the bandwidth otherwise required, while still providing operationally relevant content in full precision. Application areas are crisis, emergency and disaster management, UN-operations, law enforcement, safety, security and surveillance, interactive real-time operations and other situations where visual data is used as a source of information, as opposed to entertainment or art. Rapid communication of high precision visual content is a real challenge when network capacity is limited. ASIGN is certified for satellite communications operations. ASIGN requires a user account with an ASIGN server. Contact the developer or consult the product website for further information either on access to a cloud server or obtaining your own server. In addition to running as smartphone applications, ASIGN is also available for personal computers and embedded Linux platforms. It has been developed for mission-critical operations natively.

Drone Start is an advanced flight check & planning tool for drones. Drone Start is packed full of features that will help you plan a safe drone flight every time! You simply turn on your drone, plug your device into the drone controller, open the app & tap Start! Drone Start will then do a comprehensive set of advanced checks to see if its safe to fly in your current area & it will even check your drones battery and sensors in real time to check your drone is in perfect condition to take off! When your not out flying you can use Drone Start to create comprehensive flight plans, just type in where you want to fly and Drone Start will get Weather, GPS, Light Levels, Terrain Elevation, No Fly Zones and more! You can also plan your flight route and find out the elevation change & how much battery you'll have left! You can view the area map and see No Fly Zones, Terrain Elevations, Sunrise/Sunset Times & Positions plus you can also see an animated Wind Map, showing the wind direction with colour coded arrows so you can immediately see if its too windy to fly or not. Drone Starts calculation are also based on your drone model*, so things such as winds speeds and battery range are calculated using your actual drone! Drone Start also has some great advanced features too such as: Daily FlyCast Daily FlyCast is a daily notification sent at sunrise every morning outlining the days flying conditions. You'll also have access to the FlyCast Widget, so you can always quickly check if its good to fly without even opening the app! Solar Storm Warnings Solar Storm Warnings are notifications informing you incoming solar storms which can cause high levels of magnetic interference which can affect GPS signals and impact the accuracy of your RTH point. Intelligent RTH If enabled Drone Start will automatically calculate and set your Return To Home Height based on surround terrain elevation and building heights, making sure your doesn't fly into a mountain side or building when it returns to you! Fly Zone Alert When enabled you will receive a notification informing you have entered a No Fly Zone, we will also let you know when you leave one too! Battery Manager Drone Start records battery data before each flight so you easily check battery health, including deviations. It also recommends battery rotation order if you have multiple batteries. You can also perform a battery test to check it's heath & efficiency, plus create pdf reports from the results. Intelligent VPS If there are large bodies of water in the area, Drone Start will automatically disable your VPS for you and automatically enable it next time you fly in an area with low amounts of water. Active Drone Alerts Get notified when theres a another drone flying near your location. Drone Start Features Include**: Start Checks - Weather, GPS, KP Index, Terrain Elevation & Airspace Checks - Light Checks - Aircraft Checks - Aircraft Warming - Building Height Check - Drone Battery Health Check - Drone Sensor Health Check - Wind Altitude Checks - RTH Height Check - Wind Map - No Fly Zone Map - Terrain Elevation Map - Ephemeris - Dedicated Drone Model Checks - Golden Hour Times - Water Area Check - Active Drone Check - RTH Reminder Flight Plans - 7 Day Weather Forecast - 7 Day GPS Forecast - 7 Day KP Index Forecast - No Fly Zone Check - Terrain Elevation Check - Weather Check - Wind Map - 3D Building Map - No Fly Zone Map - Terrain Elevation Map - Ephemeris - Best Time To Fly - Flight Route Planner - Dedicated Drone Model Checks - Weekly Summary - Light Check - Golden Hour Times *DJI Drone Models are only currently supported. **Some Feature May Require An Active Monthly or Yearly Auto Renewing Subscription.
