What is a Sitemap Scan?
The sitemap scan is a drone mission flown at a high elevation (above the crane) that generates the background image in the DJI pilot app enabling the planning of accurate missions for each pour area while avoiding obstacles on site (the crane, concrete pumps, etc.)
When should the Sitemap Scan be performed?
The sitemap scan should be performed at least 2 days before the first test scan is performed.
Does this scan require GCPs?
No, this scan does NOT require GCPs if being performed by a Mavic 3 Drone with RTK.
Note: Siteaware will prepare the mission for this flight and it will be available in the “cloud” section of the DJI pilot app.
Where should I upload my data?
1. The sitemap scan data should be uploaded under the "Setup and Documentation" section of either the CaptureApp or the Self-Capture Upload Portal (SCUP)

2. From there, select Sitemap

3. Add a new scan by clicking Add A Scan

In this way, you can upload as many sitemap scans as requested by Siteaware.
4. You can then upload your scan images and GCPs as you would for a verification scan.
