Outline a site, set the resolution and sensor, and this page computes the flight a licensed operator would actually fly: altitude, image count, time in the air, data volume. The capture arrives with a licence written for training, signed into every file’s provenance record. Nothing is sent until you press send.
Draw a polygon or rectangle with the tools at top-left. You can draw several sites. Or skip the map and type an area on the right.
Altitude from the pinhole relation H = GSD × f × W / w (focal length f, image width W in pixels, sensor width w). Footprint, line spacing and shot spacing follow from your overlaps. Images = area ÷ (line spacing × shot spacing), plus 8% for edge lines.
Altitude is capped at 120 m above ground, the default ceiling under FAA Part 107, the EASA open category and most national rules. If your resolution would need more, the page says so and shows what is achievable. Ground speed is capped so the camera never fires faster than once every two seconds.
Sensor parameters are typical values; the operator confirms the exact airframe. Flight time assumes 20 usable minutes per battery and 15% overhead for turns and climbs. Price depends on location and operator availability, so it arrives as a quote, not as a number on this page.
