DJI Dock 3 + DJI Matrice 4D – Autonomous Drone System for Mapping (RTK, BVLOS)

DJI Dock 3 + DJI Matrice 4D – Autonomous Drone System for Mapping and Inspection

The DJI Dock 3 + DJI Matrice 4D set is a complete, autonomous system for carrying out drone missions without an operator on site. The solution is designed for mapping, 3D photogrammetry, infrastructure inspection, and BVLOS operations.

The combination of the DJI Dock 3 station and the DJI Matrice 4D drone enables automatic take-off, landing, charging, and mission execution — 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

• ✔ 24/7 autonomous missions (DJI FlightHub 2)
• ✔ drone takes off in approx. 10 seconds
• ✔ mapping without GCPs — 4/3" CMOS camera with mechanical shutter
• ✔ 3D photogrammetry — 5-directional oblique photos, 3-directional orthophotos
• ✔ RTK system — centimeter-level precision
• ✔ 1800 m laser rangefinder
• ✔ resistance: IP55 (drone) / IP56 (station)
• ✔ ready-to-deploy system

Dock + Matrice 4D System – Automatic Mapping and Inspections

The set combines a docking station and a drone into one integrated operating system. The Dock is responsible for logistics and automation, and the Matrice 4D for collecting spatial data and mission execution. An ideal solution for cyclical measurements, investment documentation, and infrastructure monitoring without the presence of an operator on site.

DJI Dock 3 – Autonomous Operations Base

DJI Dock 3 is a new generation station enabling full automation of operations:

• automatic drone take-off and landing
• charging 15%→95% in approx. 27 minutes (Ready-to-Fly mode)
• built-in RTK system — accuracy H: 1 cm + 1 ppm
• 9 antennas, Ethernet 10/100/1000 Mbps + 4G (with DJI Cellular Dongle 2)
• environmental sensors: wind, rain, temperature, humidity, flooding
• external camera 1920×1080, FOV 151°
• Class II lightning protection — 20 kA
• operation: -30°C to +50°C, IP56, up to 12 m/s wind
• vehicle mounting (as the first DJI station)

DJI Matrice 4D – Drone for Mapping and Photogrammetry

DJI Matrice 4D is a professional drone designed for collecting spatial data and creating 3D models:

• Wide-angle camera — 4/3" CMOS, 20 MP, f/2.8–f/11, mechanical shutter, 0.5 s interval, JPEG + RAW support, mapping without GCPs
• Medium telephoto camera — 1/1.3" CMOS, 48 MP, f/2.8, 70 mm
• Telephoto camera — 1/1.5" CMOS, 48 MP, f/2.8, 168 mm, 112x hybrid zoom
• Laser rangefinder — 1800 m range (1 Hz), accuracy ±(0.2 + 0.0015×D) m

Precision and Efficiency in the Field

• flight time up to 54 minutes (forward flight) / 47 min (hover)
• RTK — centimeter-level accuracy, mapping without GCPs
