# 3 reasons to choose the eBee RTK

01. Survey-grade accuracy Absolute orthomosaic 

### I Digital Elevation Model accuracy ofdownto 3em (1.2 in) without the need for GCPs- meaning less time spent in the field and high precision in even the most inaccessible areas.


## 02. Fully integrated workflow The eBee RTK's supplied flight planning 

### &control software (eMotion) connects tothe base station and broadcasts correction data to the rover (eBee RTK)- no additional loggerorthird-party software required.



## 03. Compatiblewith existing base stations The eBee RTK is compatible with most leading brands of base station, working seamlessly alongside your existing portfolio ofinstruments.

# Out ofthe box and ready to tly

The eBee RTK is supplied in its own carryon sized case, which contains all the components you need to take to the skies. This includes download keys for oureMotion flight planning software and PostflightTerra 3D photogrammetry software. To launch the eBee RTK, simply attach its wings, shake it three times to start its motor, and throw it into the airl The artificial intelligence built into the senseFiy autopilot continuously analyzes data from the Inertial Measurement Unit and the onboard GPS to control every aspect ofits flight.Built-in GNSS/RTK receiver • L1/L2, GPS & GLONASS ·Onboard RTK corrections at 20Hz • Upstream corrections at 1 Hz

16 MP still camera ·Controlled byeBee RTK's autopilot ·Captures images autonomously •GSD ofdown to 1.5 em per pixel

Greentechnology • Brc.sbless electric motor ·Low noise, low pollution ·Re-chargeable lithium-polymer battery

Super lightweight ·Durable EPP foam body &wings ·Take-offweight: 0.73 kg (1.61 lbs)

Inherentlysafe ·Shockabsorbent foam+ lowweight

### I 5em ·No Ground Control Points necessary

Pitottube ·Measures dynamic & static pressure ·Precisely calculates the drone's air speed

# 3ways ofworking with the eBee RTK

The eBee RTK is a highlyflexible system. It can be used in eitherofthree ways, depending on howyou preferto work and your access to incountry correction data networks. Whichever methodyou choose, no additional base station purchase is necessary since the eBee RTK is compatible with most leading brands ofsurvey-focused base station.

Plan & control your fiight

senseFiy's intuitive eMotion software makes it easy to plan and simulate your mapping mission. 

### Plan: Import your preferred base map and define the area you want to cover. Then specifyyour required ground resolution (with aGSD ofdownto 1.5 em), and image overlap. eMotion automatically generates afull flight plan, calculating the eBee RTK's required altitude and displaying its projected trajectory. 

### Configure: If you know your base station's coordinates, enter these into eMotion. If not, eMotion will calculate your base's approximate position. Or you can configure eMotion to receive VRS/NTRIP corrections. eMotion then streams correction data to the eBee RTK via the senseFiy USB ground modem. 

### Simulate: To ensure your mission's success, run a virtual flight that simulates wind strength and direction.Then make any flight plan updates required and prepare to launch.

# Create geo-referenced maps &models

Process: Use PostflightTerra 3D professional photogrammetry software, supplied with every eBee RTK, to process your flight's photos intogeo-referenced 2D orthomosaics, 3D point clouds, triangle models and Digital Elevation Models (DEMs), in just afew clicks. 

### Trust: With the eBee RTK's GSD ofdownto 1.5 em, relative orthomosaic/3D model accuracy of l-3x GSD, and absolute horizontal/vertical accuracy of down to 3/5 em (without GCPs), you can have full confidence in the accuracy ofthe outputsyou produce.
