R-JPEGs decoded
the way DJI intended
The R-JPEG looks like a photo and behaves like a measurement file — and most software treats it as the former. Atlas decodes DJI radiometric JPEGs through the proper measurement pipeline, recovering the true per-pixel temperatures your survey depends on.
Radiometric fidelity for DJI files
The difference between decoding an R-JPEG and merely displaying one is the whole product.
Radiometric file support
Atlas reads the calibrated temperature data embedded in DJI R-JPEG and FLIR radiometric files — not just the colorized preview — so every reading is a measurement, not a guess.
Calibrated temperature analysis
Inspect per-pixel temperatures, adjust emissivity and reflected temperature, and place spot and area measurements that update live as you tune parameters.
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.
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.
Why naive R-JPEG parsing gets it wrong
Modern DJI thermal stills embed measurement data that requires the manufacturer's decode pipeline; shortcut approaches that scrape EXIF constants can produce temperatures that are wildly off without looking wrong. Atlas uses the correct decode path for modern R-JPEGs, validates results for physical plausibility, and flags anything that only decoded approximately — accuracy you can state in a report.
From single files to whole surveys
R-JPEG analysis at survey scale means handling the card, not the file: hundreds of stills auto-sorted from their optical twins, batch processing with per-image parameter adjustment where needed, and CSV export of full temperature matrices for downstream engineering work.
Frequently asked questions
What is an R-JPEG?
DJI's radiometric JPEG format: a viewable thermal image with embedded calibrated temperature data. Proper software recovers a full per-pixel temperature matrix from it; image viewers only show the colorized rendering.
Which DJI cameras produce R-JPEGs Atlas can decode?
DJI enterprise thermal platforms — Mavic 3 Thermal and Matrice-series thermal payloads among them. Files that require approximate fallback decoding are labeled as such.
Can I export the decoded temperature data?
Yes — per-image temperature matrices export as CSV, alongside annotated imagery and reports.
