Customizing Annotations: Fine-Tune Annotations for Operational Precision

Enhance clarity during drone operations by customizing annotation metadata and visuals—from names and altitudes to icons and color codes.

Annotation Fields

Each annotation includes several editable fields to help describe and locate the point more accurately:

  • Name: Identify the annotation clearly for your team

  • Description: Add purpose or notes related to the point of interest

  • Latitude & Longitude: View precise placement on the map

  • Altitude (AGL): Define the vertical height above ground level for better 3D context

Icon Selection

You can now choose from a wider set of default icons that visually represent common mission elements (e.g. hazard, fire, alert, etc.).

Additionally, upload your own custom SVG icons to match internal symbols or workflows:

  1. In the Annotations panel, click on Icons

  1. Click on Upload to select a custom icon (maximum 5 icons allowed)

Color Palette

Annotations now support an expanded range of color options. Use these to categorize or prioritize annotations based on status, severity, or mission type

Tips for Customization

  • Use color consistently across teams to build familiarity

  • Standardize icon sets across projects for easy identification

  • Include relevant context in descriptions to reduce back-and-forth during missions
