DJI Matrice 4E – RTK Drone for Mapping and Photogrammetry
The DJI Matrice 4E is a professional enterprise drone designed for terrain mapping, 3D photogrammetry, and surveying applications. Its 4/3" CMOS camera with a mechanical shutter eliminates the rolling shutter effect, and a 0.5-second interval and mapping speed of up to 21 m/s allow it to cover 2.8 km² in a single flight without ground control points (GCPs). The RTK system ensures centimeter-level accuracy.
Flight time up to 49 minutes, O4 Enterprise range 25 km (FCC) / 12 km (CE), EASA C2 class, take-off time 15 seconds.
