FLY MAXWELLAERIAL IMAGERY + THERMOGRAPHYCAPTURE → PROCESS → UNDERSTAND
A drone creates the opportunity to collect. A useful result comes from connecting capture, positioning, processing, quality review and delivery. Explore the process behind the file.

Workflow / 4 MIN READ
A 3D scene should do more than rotate beautifully. Decide whether the goal is communication, spatial review or a checked measurement workflow, then build the capture around it.

Start with what the map must help you do. Coverage, coordinates, image detail and the final checks should all serve that purpose.

A thermal map connects patterns across an area. It becomes useful when capture conditions, visible context and the follow-up question remain attached to it.

Polycam is part of the Fly Maxwell workflow for reconstructing photographed properties as explorable 3D scenes. Connect the building and its surroundings, then choose the model type and handoff around the way your team will use the result.

Define the area. Plan the coverage. Review the spatial result. We use FlightHub 2 to connect those steps with a property record people can understand.

Change the layer to explore how a collection of photographs can become a three-dimensional representation.
EDUCATIONAL DIAGRAM / NOT A CLIENT MODEL
CAPTURE / OVERLAPPING VIEWS
Photographs from different positions show the same physical features. Coverage, focus, lighting and overlap shape what the reconstruction can use.
This simplified illustration explains the stages. A finished model needs suitable source capture, processing, quality review and an agreed purpose. A textured surface alone does not establish measurement accuracy.
