Updates are out now for OpenAthena™ Android, iOS, Core, and Desktop with significant accuracy improvements, especially for newer DJI drones.
OpenAthena apps allow you to instantly calculate the ground location of any single pixel of any single drone image using a novel terrain-raycast technique. It significantly enhances the capabilities of regular off-the-shelf drones for critical time-sensitive applications such as search and rescue, public safety, and defense applications:
