Hi all,

I use fixed-wing UAS that uses a very good flight planning software but only works for that specific aircraft brand and model. Most importantly, it enables me to fly "AED", above elevation data. For this to work KMLs are uploaded to the software and the flight plan for each quadrant can be set using either ASL, AGL (referenced to take-off elevation) or AED. The latter enables to keep a constant GSD throughout the survey, which is pretty important for making good maps. The aircraft automatically "hugs" the terrain keeping a constant, pre-determined elevation above the ground as indicated by the KML's data.
I recently purchased a Matrice 210 for smaller jobs on more difficult terrain (few open spaces to land a fixed wing UAS).
Does anyone know which flight/survey planning app/software that has this flying above AED capability would work with the DJI Matrice 200 series?

Thanks for your insight!

MapPilot for iOS is the app you are looking for. It supports terrain following and it lists Matrice supported hardware.
