Create Order

Order drone data for a specific area of interest. The order endpoint must include the following items:

  • deliveryDeadline : represents the deadline by which you want to receive the data
  • locationMap : represents the coordinates of the polygon of the area of interest. it should consist of an array of lat and lng, with each lat and lng corresponding to an edge of the polygon.
  • description : represents a detailed description of what the clients needs. It is recommended to write as much description as possible to detail the requirements of the client in terms of resolution, equipments, product, safety concerns...
  • orderName : represents the name of the order that you are placing. It should not be more than 20 characters
  • mapTypes : represents the end product that the client is requesting. Currently supporting only
    _2dMap : 2D Orthomosaic Map 
    _3dMap : 3D model or point cloud 
    digitalTerrainModel : Digital terrain model 
    digitalSurfaceModel : Digital surface model 
    topographicMap : Topographic map with contour lines 
    thermalMap : Thermal Map 
    ndvi : Plant health (NDVI maps) 
    multispectral : Multispectral 
    streamedData : Live streamed data (video footage) 
    originalPhotos : Base Files 

The order endpoint can include the following:

  • clientEmail : represents the email address that the notification will be sent to. If not inserted, the email address associated with the API key will be used.
  • clientName : represents the client name. If not inserted, the name associated with the API key will be used.
  • companyName : represents the company name. If not inserted, the company name associated with the API key will be used.
  • notifications : to specify if the client wants to be notified via a webhook and via email when the status of the order changes.
  • otherMapType : in case the map type is not the one that is listed above, you can insert it here.
  • pointOfContact : to specify the name and phone number of the person in charge on site, for the operators to call once they are on site. Include pocName and pocPhone in the request.
  • advancedOption : to specify the specs for data capturing if any. If none is chosen, the standards specs will be applied. See below for details.
Advanced options details

You can specify how you want your data to be captured by communicating the details specs. Otherwise, the standard GLOBHE specs will be applied.

Supported data delivery products

Delivery is separated into two groups: 'baseFiles' that consist of the unprocessed individual jpg images that the drones capture, and the processed data that contains all the processed delivery products listed below.

Note that the processed data contains only the delivery products that you specified in the order request.

mapTypesDescription
_2dMaprepresents a 2D Orthomosaic Map
_3dMaprepresents a 3D model or point cloud
elevationMaprepresents a topographic Map with contour values
digitalTerrainModelrepresents a digital terrain model
digitalSurfaceModelrepresents a digital surface model
thermalMaprepresents a thermal Map
ndvirepresents a plant health map made through an NDVI algorithm
multispectralmultispectral data captures light across specific wavelengths beyond the visible spectrum, such as red, green, blue, red edge (RE), and near-infrared (NIR) bands
streamedDatarepresents a Live streamed data (video footage)
rawrepresents Raw data/photos in .dng format straight from the drone and that have not been processed into another product
panoramasrepresents 360 panoramas taken from a single point with a drone
LiDARrepresents precise 3D representations of objects and environments visualised in a point cloud. It is captured using laser light to measure distance
