DJI Terra – Advanced Mapping & Industry Applications
Agricultural Capabilities
In addition to mapping tools, DJI Terra offers features tailored for agriculture. These include tools for yield forecasting, irrigation optimization, and crop health monitoring. As a result, farmers and agronomists can quickly gain a bird’s-eye view of their land. They can also make smarter, data-driven decisions for better farm management.
Cross-Industry Utility
DJI Terra isn’t just for agriculture. In fact, it serves professionals across surveying, construction, and public safety. Regardless of your industry, the platform delivers powerful tools to help you analyze aerial data and complete projects with precision.
Core Functionalities
Area Mapping & 3D Models
DJI Terra automatically imports images captured from different angles to build detailed 3D models. You can choose from high, medium, or low reconstruction resolutions depending on the task—whether you’re mapping a city block or inspecting a power grid.
-
Supports 400 photos per GB on one device
-
Can process up to 30,000 photos in 3 days on a single system
2D Mapping
Need flat maps? Terra creates high-resolution orthomosaics that support precise measurements.
-
Efficiently processes 5,000 photos in 2 hours on a single computer
LiDAR Processing
When paired with the Zenmuse L1, DJI Terra processes point cloud data with just one click. It also merges visible light and LiDAR for deeper analysis. Export point clouds, generate reports, and calculate POS data—all seamlessly.
Multispectral Mapping
Using DJI’s P4 Multispectral, Terra creates radiometrically calibrated reflectance maps. It also supports vegetation indices like NDVI and NDRE. You can even generate prescription maps for variable-rate applications with DJI’s Agras drones, cutting costs while boosting yield.
User Experience
DJI Terra stands out for its user-friendly interface. You can easily navigate tools for measuring area, volume, and distance. The software also lets you classify objects, making aerial data easier to interpret. In turn, you gain actionable insights—faster.
