City mapping add-on: Capture textures of vertical (building) facades
The city mapping add-on enables you to capture fantastic 3D data sets that include the textures of vertical structures such as the facades of buildings. Take a look for yourself to discover data acquired with this new option:

This add-on combines the advantage of copter UAVs of capturing the texture of building facades with the long flight time of our SIRIUS UAV. The demo shows a 90ha 3D city model with the following specs:
- Acquired with: SIRIUS pro UAS with city mapping add-on
- Flight time: 45 minutes
- Manual interaction during planning and processing: <5 minutes
- flight pattern: City mapping
- Number of images: 2900
- Amount of data: 16 GB raw data → 30 GB final result
- Resolution: 3 cm (also on the facades)
- Processing duration: 1 day @2s 10c Xeon v3 + 256GB RAM + 2 x NVIDIA
- Number of 3D points: 130 mio.
This add-on enables you in addition to acquire 3D models and orthophotos when you need to stay below 50m AGL due to flight regulations.

Updated full automatic landing
Matt Ewing, Director of Airmap3D (http://airmap3d.com/): “I performed another flight today (…) and the landing was PERFECT! It literally touched down within 30cm of the planned landing point. Very impressed!!”
Land your SIRIUS UAS automatically on the spot within a 5 m radius in case of flat terrain and undisturbed air flow, within up to 20 m radius otherwise.
New flight planning Modes: Corridor mapping, full3D flight plans, spiral flight
MAVinci Desktop offers a new flight planning mode for corridor mapping. Create new flight plans easily with a few clicks:
Ensure a constant Ground Sampling Distance with the new full 3d flight planning: SIRIUS UAS will climb / descend on the flight lines to adapt the flight plan to the underlying 3D model:
3d flight path adjustment is compatible with all MAVinci flight pattern.
Cover the maximum area within the line of sight with the new spiral flight pattern:
Other new features:
- PhotoScan 1.2 support
- New “spoileron” landing in assisted mode
- Batch export of matchings
- Automatic photo log download after flight plan ready
- RAW image processing work flow
- Translation into French and Russian
- Automatic adaption of motor RPM to takeoff altitude
- Post processing export to “3Dsurvey”-Software
