SiteScan for ArcGIS and ArcGIS Drone2Map also support multi-spectral drone imagery and generate products such as NDVI which is commonly used in plant health studies. In addition, bio-mass estimates can be made by generating point clouds and different Surface Models to support Forestry research. These packages can also generate 3D textured meshes that are useful for accurate simulations of urban environments and for various 3D analysis tasks such as understanding the effects of shade and line of sight in built-up areas.
