As a Service
  • For Applanix OEM Partners
  • HaaS + SaaS model where the APX UAV HW is provided at cost+ and its value is only paid for when a trajectory is processed through a cloud processing engine on a per minute price.
  • DGaaS offers a scalable business model, simply add capacity by subscribing to addition technology
  • Comprised of Hardware (HaaS) and Software as a Service (SaaS): Applanix APX UAV DGaaS GNSS/IMU units; and POSPac UAV Cloud for automatic data processing
  • Provides a subscription based model for UAV Direct Georeferencing
  • Maintenance and upgrades are available with the DGaaS subscription
  • Hardware and Software are licensed on a pay-per-use basis
  • Low cost, low risk access to advanced Direct Georeferencing technology
  • Pay as you go model means less up-front cash outlay
  • Applanix SmartBase Logo

UAV Augmentation solutions

GNSS augmentation (See Webinar) is required to generate cm level absolute position accuracy for mapping applications. The Applanix GNSS augmentation solutions guarantee the highest level of accuracy, are simple to use, cost-effective, and seamlessly integrated into the APX UAV Direct Georeferencing workflow.

Applanix SmartBase™: generates a set of observations for a virtual base station exactly where and when you need it!
