The inspection app that speaks
fluent DJI
DJI thermal drones write radiometric R-JPEGs that most software treats as ordinary photos. Atlas routes recognized files through DJI's Thermal SDK and understands DJI file conventions well enough to sort an entire memory card by itself.
Deep support for the DJI ecosystem
Format handling is model- and firmware-specific; Atlas does not infer support for an entire DJI family from one capture.
Radiometric file support
Atlas reads embedded temperature data from supported DJI R-JPEG and FLIR radiometric files — not just the colorized preview — and keeps measurement parameters available for review.
Automatic photo organization
Uploads are sorted thermal vs optical, grouped by flight, and filed against the right project and building automatically — even full memory-card dumps.
Drone video frame extraction
Pull sharp, evenly spaced frames out of drone video — including thermal video — instead of screenshotting playback by hand.
Drone flight planning
Generate orbit, roof-grid, and facade missions around your subject, check them against obstacle zones, and export DJI-compatible waypoint files.
Radiometric temperature analysis
Inspect per-pixel temperatures, adjust emissivity and reflected temperature, and place spot and area measurements that update live as you tune parameters and interpret capture conditions.
3D models & orthophotos
Turn drone photos or video into interactive 3D models, orthophotos, and downloadable deliverables processed on cloud GPUs — no desktop photogrammetry rig required.
R-JPEGs decoded the right way
Modern DJI thermal stills need DJI's own measurement pipeline; naive EXIF parsing can be wildly off. Atlas uses the DJI Thermal SDK for recognized R-JPEGs. Current M4TD evidence demonstrates SDK-output parity only, not known-target physical accuracy or field calibration.
Your whole card, filed automatically
A DJI card mixes wide, zoom, and IR frames that share the same make and model tags. Atlas classifies each frame by its actual content and metadata, pairs thermal with optical captures, and groups same-flight videos together. The DJI R-MP4 path is implemented but not certified for M4TD, and video parameter recalculation is unsupported.

Frequently asked questions
Which DJI drones does Atlas support?
Atlas accepts standard DJI photos and video and attempts recognized radiometric formats through model-specific paths. Thermal capability is not a family-wide claim; validate the exact model, firmware, and format before field use.
Can Atlas get temperatures out of DJI thermal video?
The R-MP4 pipeline can retain source-linked per-frame matrices when the DJI SDK accepts the file, but M4TD video has not passed known-target certification. Video parameter recalculation is unsupported.
Is Atlas affiliated with DJI?
No. Atlas Inspections is independent software that processes files DJI drones produce and exports missions in DJI-compatible formats. DJI is a trademark of its respective owner.
