ArcGIS Drone2Map v2022.1 is now live, and we are excited to share all the new features and enhancements with you!<\/p>\n

This release implements a new processing engine for significantly improved quality of the 3D point clouds, 3D Mesh generation as well as visual detail in the orthomosaics. There is improved definition of vegetation and manmade features, and the outputs look even more realistic. The refined processing engine based on Esri\u2019s SURE technology also enables processing of larger projects and in many cases it is also faster. Now let\u2019s take a deeper dive into all the features that you can expect with this software release!

1. Thermal processing capabilities<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Visualize temperature values on your map using Drone2map\u2019s new thermal processing capabilities. For example, organizations in utilities or agriculture that use thermal infrared cameras now can create orthomosaics that depict temperature in either Celsius or Fahrenheit. Such variations in temperatures can reveal a great deal of information such as irrigation leaks in fields.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1622712,"id":1622712,"title":"Thermal R-JPEG","filename":"Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","filesize":84419,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/drone2map\/imagery\/whats-new-in-arcgis-drone2map-june-2022\/thermal-r-jpeg","alt":"","author":"311472","description":"","caption":"","name":"thermal-r-jpeg","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1611722,"date":"2022-06-21 23:26:29","modified":"2022-06-21 23:27:25","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":700,"height":400,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","medium-width":457,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","medium_large-width":700,"medium_large-height":400,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","large-width":700,"large-height":400,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","1536x1536-width":700,"1536x1536-height":400,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","2048x2048-width":700,"2048x2048-height":400,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","card_image-width":700,"card_image-height":400,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Thermal-R-JPEG.jpg","wide_image-width":700,"wide_image-height":400}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

2. Redesigned multispectral camera support<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Organizations working with multispectral datasets captured using cameras such as Micasense RedEdge or Altum now have tools to improve quantitative analysis of their data. Use radiometric calibration panels to create reliable imagery products across multiple dates and conditions and identify problem areas in your imagery data such as unhealthy vegetation. This feature is particularly helpful in the areas of agriculture and environmental monitoring.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1622842,"id":1622842,"title":"NDVI","filename":"NDVI.jpg","filesize":249778,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI.jpg","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/drone2map\/imagery\/whats-new-in-arcgis-drone2map-june-2022\/ndvi","alt":"Multispectral dataset","author":"311472","description":"","caption":"","name":"ndvi","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1611722,"date":"2022-06-21 23:48:09","modified":"2022-06-21 23:48:45","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/jpeg","type":"image","subtype":"jpeg","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":982,"height":552,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI-213x200.jpg","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI.jpg","medium-width":464,"medium-height":261,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI.jpg","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":432,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI.jpg","large-width":982,"large-height":552,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI.jpg","1536x1536-width":982,"1536x1536-height":552,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI.jpg","2048x2048-width":982,"2048x2048-height":552,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI-826x465.jpg","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":465,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/NDVI.jpg","wide_image-width":982,"wide_image-height":552}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

3. Pre-processing tools for quality control<\/strong><\/h3>\n

For improving orthomosaic results, tools like Correction Feature and Waterbody Mask enable users to edit the DSM point clouds to improve the resulting orthomosaic tiles. Instead of recreating the entire orthomosaic, save time by just recreating the tile that falls within your area of interest.<\/p>\n

Similarly, the Project Area tool helps constrain the processing results to the user specified area. The tool is particularly useful when working with oblique imagery or flights with low overlap where confidence in coverage at the flight boundaries may be questionable.<\/p>\n"},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1622862,"id":1622862,"title":"Pre-processing Correction_tank","filename":"Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","filesize":737956,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/drone2map\/imagery\/whats-new-in-arcgis-drone2map-june-2022\/pre-processing-correction_tank","alt":"","author":"311472","description":"","caption":"","name":"pre-processing-correction_tank","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1611722,"date":"2022-06-21 23:51:03","modified":"2022-06-21 23:52:18","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/gif","type":"image","subtype":"gif","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":660,"height":274,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank-213x200.gif","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","medium-width":464,"medium-height":193,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","medium_large-width":660,"medium_large-height":274,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","large-width":660,"large-height":274,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","1536x1536-width":660,"1536x1536-height":274,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","2048x2048-width":660,"2048x2048-height":274,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","card_image-width":660,"card_image-height":274,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-Correction_tank.gif","wide_image-width":660,"wide_image-height":274}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"image","image":{"ID":1622912,"id":1622912,"title":"Pre-processing waterbody mask Tile_badouzi","filename":"Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","filesize":449225,"url":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","link":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/products\/drone2map\/imagery\/whats-new-in-arcgis-drone2map-june-2022\/pre-processing-waterbody-mask-tile_badouzi","alt":"","author":"311472","description":"","caption":"","name":"pre-processing-waterbody-mask-tile_badouzi","status":"inherit","uploaded_to":1611722,"date":"2022-06-21 23:52:35","modified":"2022-06-21 23:52:35","menu_order":0,"mime_type":"image\/png","type":"image","subtype":"png","icon":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/wp-includes\/images\/media\/default.png","width":900,"height":222,"sizes":{"thumbnail":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi-213x200.png","thumbnail-width":213,"thumbnail-height":200,"medium":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","medium-width":464,"medium-height":114,"medium_large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","medium_large-width":768,"medium_large-height":189,"large":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","large-width":900,"large-height":222,"1536x1536":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","1536x1536-width":900,"1536x1536-height":222,"2048x2048":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","2048x2048-width":900,"2048x2048-height":222,"card_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi-826x204.png","card_image-width":826,"card_image-height":204,"wide_image":"https:\/\/www.esri.com\/arcgis-blog\/app\/uploads\/2022\/06\/Pre-processing-waterbody-mask-Tile_badouzi.png","wide_image-width":900,"wide_image-height":222}},"image_position":"center","orientation":"horizontal","hyperlink":""},{"acf_fc_layout":"content","content":"

Licensing Information<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

Drone2Map is now available in two license levels, Standard and Advanced.\u00a0 The Standard version has been optimized for organizations that require fast and simple 2D products (including orthomosaics and elevation models), and the Advanced version includes all features of Standard plus the ability to create 3D products including point clouds and 3D meshes.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Note: To support these two license levels, we\u2019ve implemented new licensing.<\/p>\n
