DJI M30T at Droneview.be: Compact Inspection Drone with Centimeter-Level Precision

With the deployment of the DJI Matrice 30T, Droneview.be strengthens its services in professional drone inspections, surveying support and data-driven site monitoring.

This drone is not a traditional upgrade, but an integrated measurement platform combining inspection, mapping, thermography and distance measurement in one robust system.

For construction projects, property developers and architects where every centimeter matters, this technology makes a measurable difference.

For complex projects where every centimeter counts, the M30T truly makes the difference.

Centimeter-level mapping accuracy thanks to our own RTK station and FLEPOS

The M30T features built-in RTK (Real-Time Kinematic). For maximum accuracy, Droneview.be operates with a professional in-house RTK base station, connected to the Belgian FLEPOS reference network.

This combination allows us to achieve positioning accuracy of 1 to 3 centimeters, fully compliant with surveying standards.

Using our own RTK station means:

From 3D House Scans to Construction Monitoring and Inspections

What Can You Do with WebODM?

At DroneView.be, we see every day how powerful drone imagery can be — not only for creating impressive photos, but especially for delivering practical insights. Thanks to WebODM, we can turn raw aerial photos into clear maps, 3D models, and measurable data. This opens the door to applications across many sectors: from real estate and construction to agriculture and technical inspections. In this article, you’ll discover how versatile drone mapping really is, and where you can use it.

3D Scans and Virtual Tours for Real Estate

Selling a property goes faster and easier when you present it visually in an attractive way. With WebODM we can:

  • create a 3D scan of a house or apartment
  • set up a virtual tour of a property so buyers can explore online
  • generate floor plans and measurements from aerial images

For real estate agents and developers this is a huge asset: it saves time, provides a clearer picture, and makes a property much more appealing online.

From 1,750 Drone Images to 3D: How Drone Mapping is Revolutionizing Mining

Introduction: The Power of Drone Mapping

At DroneView.be, we do more than capture spectacular aerial photos. We transform drone imagery into measurable, actionable data for our clients. Traditional inspections and land surveys, especially across vast areas like quarries, are time-consuming, risky, and often inaccurate. Our recent project in a quarry perfectly illustrates how drone mapping streamlines this process. From 1,750 individual photos, we created an interactive 3D model, enabling the client to easily perform volume calculations and efficiently manage the site.

Case Study: Precision in the Quarry

The Project: Our client, a quarry operator, needed an accurate, up-to-date overview for material management and strategic planning. Covering more than 100 hectares, manual surveying was impossible. DroneView.be conducted a series of automated drone flights, resulting in a dataset of 1,750 images.

Our Approach: Mission Flights

For a site of this size, preparation is crucial. We plan about ten mission flights, partly from the office and partly on-site. Each flight is carefully configured to systematically capture the entire area with proper overlap. The structured pattern ensures that all images can later be seamlessly processed into one complete 3D model in WebODM.

Mission flight planned and currently in progress
