Re-Flights & Recurring Monitoring
One flight is a snapshot. Fly the same site again and you get a dated record of how your property changes. Here is how a re-flight works.
Asking for a re-flight
Each re-flight starts with a request. On your dashboard, find the project's card and press Ask to fly this site again. Say what has changed or what you need to see, then press Send request.
Nothing is booked or billed when you send it. We reply with what the flight would take and schedule it with you.
If you want flights at regular times, such as each quarter or each season, tell us. We plan each one with you.
Each new flight is processed the same way as the last and joins your project as its own dated scan.
Why people fly again
- Construction — a dated progress record of the build, flight over flight.
- Ranches & guest ranches — roads, water and brush, season to season.
- Parks & venues — construction and seasonal changes between flights.
- Land & facilities — spot drainage and erosion early, while it's cheap to fix.
Seeing what changed
With two or more flights, the Compare tab in your viewer sets two dates against each other. A slider and a before/after swipe show both, and a difference view marks where things changed.
See Compare two scans and see what changed for the details.
Tip: Keep the capture window similar each time: the same rough time of day and season. Then a change between flights reflects your site, not the light or the leaves.
Tip: Start with one flight. If the map proves its value, ask for the next one and we'll fly it the same way.

The whole idea: a drone photographs your property, software builds measurable maps and photoreal 3D, and you explore them in a browser, nothing to install.
