Drone Imagery vs. Satellite Imagery

Feature	Drone Imagery	Satellite Imagery
Resolution	Ultra-sharp (1–4 cm/pixel)	Lower (30–50 cm/pixel)
Recency	Captured on demand	Often months or years old
Obstructions	We fly on clear or overcast days to avoid clouds and eliminate shadows	Often blocked by clouds, haze, or poor lighting
Customization	Full control of flight paths and timing	No control; fixed schedules
Accuracy	GPS/RTK precision for near-survey quality	General placement only

Our drone maps are brighter, cleaner, and easier to analyze—ideal for hunters needing to identify details like stand access, trails, or game movement.
