Hi all,
NVdrones just released our mobile app today, NVDash Mobile! Some of you have been beta testing our web app and we've gotten great feedback that led into the development of our Android app.
Based on conversations with many of our customers, here are a few problems we set out to solve with this initial release:
- Checklists are difficult to manage with paper because different teams, drones, and projects, require different checklists
- Checklists currently exist in a vacuum — they are difficult to integrate well with the rest of your team’s data and workflow.
- Looking for real-time weather and airspace information requires checking individual standalone apps.
- Other mobile apps don’t work offline, which is prohibitive for many of you doing work in remote areas.
What our mobile app does that other drone management apps do not focus on is the system of checklists. We did this because the vast majority of drone teams implement some sort of checklist system, with the vast majority of those still going down the paper route.
With that mind here are some of the features we implemented into NVDash Mobile:
· Fly safely with comprehensive and real-time airspace map provided by AirMap
· Know the flying conditions with real-time weather information
· Manage your entire team by easily on-boarding team equipment and personnel
· Optimize your team's workflow by creating checklists directly on the app (e.g. create a charging, pre-flight, and post-flight checklist). You can add checkboxes, custom text entries, and other items to checklist templates.
· Increase efficiency by executing checklists directly from the app
· Stay on the same page as team members with a full history of completed checklists
· Operate without cell service or wi-fi - Does not require internet connectivity (excluding AirMap features)
Over the next releases we are going to be implementing other things like flight logging, integration with our web app (where you can upload flight logs from DJI, 3DR, Yuneec, Freefly, etc.), as well as AirMap's D-NOTICE. D-NOTICE will allow you to electronically notify major airports/ATC of your flight directly from NVDash Mobile.
Here is a short video demo of the app:
