Smart Oblique Capture and Efficiency Features

The P1’s Smart Oblique Capture rotates the camera during flight to collect only the images needed for reconstruction.

• Covers up to 7.5 km² per day
• Reduces post-processing by 20–50%
• Saves onboard storage and sorting time

The P1 also:

• Tags every image with RTK and orientation metadata
• Associates output with mission names and timestamps
• Stores metadata MRK files with geolocation and camera details

This feature is built for urban planning, cadastral mapping, and detailed 3D reconstruction.

Mission Modes and Applications

Use the DJI Zenmuse P1 for a range of photogrammetry tasks:

2D Orthomosaic Mapping

• Capture flat, high-resolution maps without GCPs.
• Ideal for medium to large land surveys.

3D Oblique Modeling

• Automated angled image capture.
• Best for urban planning and smart city modeling.

High-resolution Reality Modeling

• Scan vertical surfaces and complex structures.
• Useful for geology, historical preservation, and engineering.

Real-time Mapping

• Use DJI Terra on-site to check results.
• Enables faster decision-making in the field.

Field Verification Tools

Avoid re-flights with built-in verification options:

• RTK Accuracy Check
  Confirm GNSS lock and satellite data.
• Image Positioning Data
  Review captured angles, geotags, and coverage.
• Instant Playback
  Spot-check coverage and positioning before leaving the site.

Use Cases for the Zenmuse P1
