Abstract
Various embodiments of the present technology generally relate to unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) scale rendered analysis, orthomosaic, and 3D mapping and landing platform systems. More specifically, some embodiments relate to systems, methods, and means for the collection and processing of images captured during a UAV flight sequence. In some embodiments, the UAV landing platform retrieves flight information and initial map information over a unidirectional virtual private network from a multitenant cloud-based scheduling application. The UAV landing platform sends the initial map information to a UAV over a WiFi, Bluetooth, or radio frequency network and initiates a drone flight sequence once the drone flight sequence has been approved by a local user. The UAV landing platform receives property image data from a UAV after a UAV flight sequence has ended and transmits the received property image data back to the cloud application.
