## Reviews

### "First deployment for a Golf Course." — 4.0/5

> **Gregory** | *5 October 2020* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: To set it up on the computer with way points was really easy. When flying it did its intended job. The map turned out good except for a few problem areas listed below.
> 
> **Cons**: Issues with camera not loading up properly when launching. It would be able to fly the map but it wouldn't show the video on my ipad. IT would only show on the map the drone flying the course. I would have to reset my drone and ipad every time I did a battery change. Which was really frustrating. When I got done all the pictures of the course. There was an area in the middle of the course that the pictures were all over exposed. So super bright in comparison to the rest of the pictures on the map. When uploading the pictures I would have to be on the computer using it otherwise it would time out and would have to start the upload again. Also there was an issue with the height of the drone for the map. I tried 60M and it would cut off half of the mapped area I chose in the software. Wouldn't take any more pictures after that. When I moved it up to 90M it seemed to do the whole map. There was just some little issues that made it very frustrating.
> 
> I used it one time to do the mapping for a golf course. I will use it again when I do another golf course.

### "Trial for use in stockpile management" — 4.0/5

> **Will** | *29 September 2020* | Utilities | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very easy and intuitive to use. &#10;Great integration of flight planning and flight logs &#10;Powerful integration with PIX4D
> 
> **Cons**: Cannot output DXF files of triangulated surfaces&#10;Can't input DXF files of triangulated surfaces representing complex base surfaces of piles
> 
> We were very interested and optimistic about using this tool for replacement of our traditional aerial surveys for coal and byproducts stockpile management.  However, upon using it on a trial basis, we found that we could not get the output we needed to interface with our systems.  We were disappointed that this was the case as all the other tools in Measure were so intuitive and well integrated.

### "Whoops\!" — 1.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *5 October 2020* | Motion Pictures & Film | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I like that the interface looked easy.
> 
> **Cons**: No one instructed me that you have to sign in to the DJI App on Measure Ground Control every single time and sign in to Airmaps in order to get clearance around some Geofences.  The company I was flying for blamed me for this and has not hired me again since even though they knew I never flown with Ground Control before.
> 
> Complete Fail\!  I am a safe, skilled and experienced FAA certified drone pilot for films, television and commercials.  My industry has very little work going on due to Covid.  I was looking forward to working with a new company who hired me to fly.  I told them I had never used Measure Ground Control before and they assured me that they would verify the mission they were asking me to upload comletely to make sure it would execute.  I went to the location and did the first part of the job manually using my DJI App.  It went well and looked great.  When I called up the mission in the Ground Control App, I was looking forward to it automatically executing.  It kept stopping at a certain point 1/8th into the mission.  I later found out that it did not execute because you have to sign in to the DJI App on Measure Ground Control and sign in to Airmaps to get clearance around some Geofences that the company I was hired to fly for did not even know existed in the area.  The company I was flying for somehow blamed me for this and has not hired me again even though they knew I never flown with Ground Control before and paid me because they acknowledged this issue.  I flew the mission they needed manually to the best of my ability and got them as much of it that I could get (90%).  Still they have not hired me again due to this issue in your App.  I have used Litchi and Waypoints in DJI and other apps and never had this issue occur.  Please correct this in your App\!
