Overview
To get started, you will need to ensure you have created a map and have uploaded your media. For help with this step, please see these articles:

Section Title
Step 1: Upload Data or Select an Existing Data Set
Open the layers panel in your new map.
If you haven’t already uploaded your media, upload it into a new folder.
The upload will continue even if you close the upload media pop-up.
Alternatively, you can wait for the upload to complete.
Step 2: Request Processing
Right-click on the folder containing your image and select Request Processing.
This action will open the processing request form.
Note: To process to a set boundary, you can upload a KML file under advanced settings. This will produce mapping output with neat edges and will save you from clipping your orthomosaic at a later stage for presentation.
Step 3: Populate Processing Details
Define the types of outputs you want for the data set.
You can request multiple processing jobs with different settings on the same data set if needed.
If you have an Ultimate plan (or are opted into the enterprise solution), presets with your standard settings will be available.
Otherwise, use the custom option to define your requirements.
Output Options:
Ortho:
Select this output if needed and define the GSD (cm/px).
If selected, you will have the option to add a point cloud.
DTM:
Select this output and define the GSD (cm/px).
DSM:
Select this output and define the GSD (cm/px).
Additional Settings:
Rolling shutter speed.
RTK (if available).
Step 4: Review Processing Summary & Cost
The payment summary will calculate the total cost based on:
Number of images in the data set.
Image sizes.
Your subscription plan.
Free Plan Users:
Confirm to continue to the payment screen, where you will be prompted to use an existing payment method or add a new one.
Step 5: Confirm
Click Request Processing to add the processing job to the queue and close the window.
While processing:
Your images will be georeferenced on the map as small icons (see below)
Processing times vary depending on the project size.
Step 6: Processing
Once settings are verified, the processing job will begin.
When completed, you will receive an email notification.
Step 7: Review Outputs
Access your outputs from various folders within the map view:
Orthophotos and hillshades can be toggled on or off.
Outputs will also be available in the Layers panel for download.
