Hey there!

After some digging, it seems I can't find much on the subject so here I am asking the experts. Is it possible with DJI Pilot to upload your own basemap, whether it be a pdf map or geotiff? I work in the forestry industry and a lot of times the satellite imagery just isn't recent enough to create an efficient plan (think surveying newly built logging roads). KMZ uploading using drone deploy is interesting but I find it only works for mapping operations as opposed to linear "corridor" flights. Manual flying works but definitely isn't as battery friendly as a preset flight path in my extremely limited experience.

Any thoughts or suggestions on the matter?

Thanks :),
Brenden
