Frequent questions
Lightning-fast and full-featured — make every survey faster, more accurate, and more profitable by using Surveyaan V1.
What makes the Surveyaan V1RC Plus suitable for large-scale surveys?−
The Surveyaan V1RC Plus is specifically designed for large-scale commercial survey operations. With 40–45 minutes of flight endurance, fully autonomous waypoint mission planning, dual processors for reliability, and three payload options — Non-PPK, PPK, and surveillance — it can cover vast areas in a single mission while maintaining < 5 cm (X,Y) and< 10 cm (Z) accuracy with ground control points. Its carbon fiber construction rated for 3000 operation cycles ensures consistent performance on intensive daily commercial use.
What are the three payload options available with the Surveyaan V1RC Plus?+
The V1RC Plus supports three payload configurations. The Non-PPK Payload is a 23 MP camera with a 1/2.3-inch sensor, 5.3K 60fps video, and Bluetooth connection — ideal for standard photogrammetry projects. The PPK RGB Payload is a 20 MP APS-C sensor camera with L1/L2 GNSS, up to 10 Hz update rate, and Bluetooth/Wi-Fi connectivity — delivering < 5 cm horizontal accuracy without dense GCPs. The Surveillance Payload supports 2K video recording, 3-axis stabilisation, and live 720p transmission — perfect for real-time site monitoring, security, and inspection operations.
What safety features does the Surveyaan V1RC Plus have?+
The V1RC Plus is equipped with class-leading safety features including dual processors and sensors for redundancy, automatic Return to Home on low battery, Return to Home on high wind, Return to Home on GPS glitches, and Return to Home on communication loss or high interference. These multiple failsafe layers ensure the drone returns safely under any unexpected condition during large-scale autonomous survey missions.
What survey deliverables can be generated using the Surveyaan V1RC Plus?+
Using the V1RC Plus with Surveyaan GeoWorkspace, you can generate a full suite of professional survey deliverables: georeferenced Orthomosaic maps, Digital Surface Model (DSM), Digital Terrain Model (DTM), dense 3D Point Cloud, textured 3D Models, and CAD-compatible contour outputs in DXF/DWG format. All outputs are processed through an automated cloud-based workflow — from image upload to project-ready deliverables in just a few clicks.
Can the Surveyaan V1RC Plus be used for surveillance and security monitoring?+
Yes. The V1RC Plus includes a dedicated surveillance payload that records video at up to 2K resolution with 3-axis stabilisation for smooth, stable footage and supports live video transmission at up to 720p resolution in real time. This makes it an ideal tool not only for professional survey operations but also for construction site monitoring, mining security, border area surveillance, infrastructure inspection, and real-time situational awareness for government and enterprise clients.
