WingtraOne PPK a high-precision drone set a new benchmark in photogrammetry
ξ WingtraOne PPK (Post-Processed Kinematics) drone
ξ set a new benchmark in large-scale surveying and mapping applications
ξ with the help of photogrammetry software provider Pix4D, and
ξ the GNSS board and PPK provider Septentrio
ξ WingtraOne PPK is able to deliver orthomosaic maps and
ξ 3D models with an absolute accuracy down to 1 cm (0.4 in)

ξ in a single one-hour flight,
ξ the WingtraOne can cover 130 ha (320 ac),
ξ which is equal to 240 football fields and
ξ deliver maps at GSDs below 1 cm/px (0.4 in/px)
ξ with absolute accuracy down to 1 cm (0.4 in)

VTOL combines the best of multirotors and fixed-wings
ξ vertical take-off and landing means hands-free operation and
ξ a smoother ride for the on-board sensors
ξ efficient flying in fixed-wing mode means
ξ far greater coverage than any comparable multirotor

Post-Processed Kinematics (PPK)
ξ allows the WingtraOne to reach new level of accuracy
ξ PPK computes ultra-precise geolocations for each image
ξ by combining the GNSS data with correction data from a nearby reference receiver
ξ high payload capacity makes it possible to integrate the highest quality sensors:
ξ the Sony RX1RII and
ξ state-of-the-art Septentrio PPK system
ξ an RMS error of 1.2 cm (0.5 in) horizontally and
ξ 2.3 cm (0.9 in) vertically without any ground control points
ξ is a significant leap forward in efficient aerial mapping,
ξ saving hours on the field for the demanding surveying industry

After the aerial data collection
ξ Pix4D post-processing software steps in as a powerful tool
ξ to generate orthophotos and 3D models from the geotagged images
ξ results become visual � the orthomosaics and 3D models

WingtraPilot
ξ In-app drawing
ξ load & saved missions
ξ Inflight monitoring & emergency commands
ξ On field data inspector
ξ georeferencing aerial images

Mission success through smart planning
ξ designed from ground up to maximise successful aerial data acquisition
ξ before the flight, guarantees full functionality of the drone
ξ by running background checks like battery health, GPS reception and test images
ξ displays an interactive checklist
ξ that guides the operator through the preflight process and
ξ catches oversights like not removing the camera lid
ξ missions can be planned either by importing KML and shapefiles directly from a GIS program or
ξ by simply selecting the area of interest with a tap on the screen of the tablet
ξ with its integrated global terrain model,
ξ WingtraPilot ensures the best reconstruction results by
ξ maintaining constant altitude above the surveying site
ξ terrain following function also prevents collisions
ξ with the ground even in the most mountainous areas

Safety first in operations
ξ ensures the highest safety standards for the operator and the equipment
ξ after the operator confirms the mission on WingtraPilot,
ξ the WingtraOne executes take-off, aerial image capturing and landing
ξ without needing any human interaction
ξ its software checks continuously for restricted flight areas,
ξ GPS reception, battery health and operating temperatures
ξ in case of abnormal conditions WingtraPilot automatically triggers immediate return to home (RTH),
ξ which makes the WingtraOne abort the mission and land at the take-off point
ξ during the entire flight, WingtraPilot provides the operator
ξ with live feedback up to 8 km distance
ξ user can intervene at any time and abort the mission
ξ by commanding return to home (RTH) from the tablet

Efficient workflow
ξ WingtraPilot and the WingtraOne are engineered to make the data acquisition workflow as lean as possible.
ξ For time saving and consistent results of recurring surveys,
ξ saved missions can be loaded with a single click.
ξ Thanks to its ready-to-fly configuration,
ξ the WingtraOne is set up for take-off on the field in less than 5 minutes,
ξ including all preflight steps and planning a simple mission.
ξ The battery swap and resume functionality allows one to plan large missions as a whole and
ξ reduces time needed in between flights to the bare minimum.

ξ All aerial images and geolocation information is stored on a single SD card
ξ and can be inspected in the field on the WingtraPilot tablet for early quality checks.
ξ WingtraPilot offers the ability to georeference images of multiple flights at the end of the day
ξ to minimize idle time on site.
ξ The results are compatible with all major stitching and analysis tools:

Pix4Dmapper
ξ Access one-click image processing
ξ Create georeferenced orthomosaics, 3D point clouds & digital surface models
ξ Run volume calculations, display contour lines and 3D textured models
ξ Use both desktop & cloud processing options
ξ Link to sample maps and 3D models
