Drone video is evidence —
if you can get frames out of it
Video is the easiest thing to capture on site and the hardest to use afterwards. Atlas converts drone footage into inspection-usable stills and can reconstruct 3D models from the same footage. DJI R-MP4 inputs can retain source-linked temperature matrices when the SDK accepts them, but M4TD video has not passed known-target certification.
From footage to findings
Stop scrubbing timelines and screenshotting playback.
Drone video frame extraction
Pull sharp, evenly spaced frames out of drone video — including thermal video — instead of screenshotting playback by hand.
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.
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.
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.
Annotation & markup
Drop pins with live temperature readouts, mark regions, add delta-T callouts, and attach field notes so every finding carries its evidence.
Branded PDF reports
Generate client-ready reports with annotated imagery, findings tables, and severity grading — under your logo and brand, ready to send the same day.
Frame extraction with judgment
Naive extraction gives you three hundred near-duplicates, half of them motion-blurred. Atlas selects frames by sharpness and spacing, with adjustable extraction settings when you want more or fewer, and files results straight into the project. DJI R-MP4 inputs can retain source-linked matrices when accepted by the SDK, but M4TD video has not passed known-target certification and parameter recalculation is unsupported.
One orbit video, a whole 3D model
A steady orbit around a structure contains everything reconstruction needs. Atlas extracts the frames, runs photogrammetry on cloud GPUs, and returns an interactive model — a workflow that turns two minutes of flying into the most impressive deliverable in the report.
Frequently asked questions
Can Atlas extract temperature data from thermal video?
DJI R-MP4 video can provide a source-linked per-frame matrix when accepted by the SDK. M4TD video has not passed known-target certification, video parameter recalculation is unsupported, and FLIR SEQ/CSQ has separate metadata limitations.
How does Atlas choose which frames to extract?
By sharpness and even spacing along the footage, with settings you can adjust and re-extract — no more manually scrubbing for the least blurry moment.
What video formats work?
Standard drone video (MP4/MOV) from DJI, Autel, and similar platforms works for visual frame extraction. DJI R-MP4 and FLIR SEQ/CSQ radiometric paths remain unverified at the camera-model level and have documented limitations.
