DJI Terra is DJI's desktop mapping software. On a farm it turns Mavic 3 Multispectral images into reflectance and vegetation-index maps, builds 2D field and fruit-tree maps for Agras route planning, and makes variable-rate prescription maps for Agras spraying. It runs on a Windows PC with an NVIDIA graphics card. We quote the licence that fits the work: Agriculture for most farms, Standard or Flagship when you also need 3D models or LiDAR.

[ KEY FEATURES ]

What Terra does for a farm

01

Five vegetation indices

NDVI and GNDVI (overall crop vigour), NDRE and LCI (nitrogen and chlorophyll in dense canopies) and OSAVI (early crops with bare soil showing), from Mavic 3 Multispectral or Phantom 4 Multispectral images, with radiometric correction and reflectance maps so flights on different days compare.

02

Prescriptions for Agras

Builds variable-rate prescription maps from multispectral or visible-light maps for Agras spraying and spreading. An agronomist sets the rates; test the file on the controller before the full job.

03

Field and orchard maps

The Field and Fruit Tree scenarios make 2D maps and route plans designed for the Agras T50 and T100, so boundaries and tree rows come from imagery instead of walking the field.

04

Licences that match the work

Agriculture covers the farm features on up to three computers for a year. Standard adds 3D models, LiDAR and terrain; Flagship adds advanced 3D and power-line tools that farms rarely need.

05

Open file formats

Index maps and orthomosaics export as GeoTIFF, so they open in GIS tools and many farm-management programs as well as on Agras controllers.

06

Processes on your own PC

Imagery stays on your computer. Plan on Windows 10 or later, 32 GB of RAM and an NVIDIA card with at least 4 GB of video memory.

[ Is DJI Terra right for you ]

Choose the software for the output you need

Terra is worth it when someone will process imagery regularly and act on it: index maps for scouting, prescriptions for an Agras, or season-long research data. For a quick look at a field, the Mavic 3M's live NDVI view may be enough.

Agronomists and crop advisors

Index maps and prescriptions for several growers' fields.

Farms running variable-rate

Prescriptions for fertilizer, seeding or spraying with an Agras.

Custom operators

Mapping as a service between spray windows.

Common trigger events

  • ■You bought a Mavic 3M and need to process its images
  • ■You're starting variable-rate work with an Agras
  • ■A research project needs calibrated, repeatable data
  • ■An institutional budget must be spent before fiscal year-end

Usually not the starting fit

  • ■You work only on a Mac
  • ■Nobody will process and interpret the imagery (we can fly and map it for you)
  • ■You expect a map to diagnose crop problems on its own
  • ■You need 3D or LiDAR: that's Standard or Flagship, not Agriculture

[ FAQ ]

Frequently Asked Questions

Turning Mavic 3 Multispectral images into reflectance and vegetation-index maps, building field and orchard maps for Agras route planning, and making variable-rate prescription maps for Agras spraying and spreading.

The Agriculture licence covers multispectral and index maps, field and fruit-tree maps and prescriptions, on up to three computers for one year. Choose Standard or Flagship only if you also need 3D models, LiDAR or survey outputs.

No. DJI Terra runs on Windows 10 or later (64-bit) and needs an NVIDIA graphics card; macOS and AMD graphics aren't supported.

Windows 10 or later, 32 GB of RAM and an NVIDIA graphics card with at least 4 GB of video memory, such as a GTX 1050 Ti or better. Larger projects run faster with more memory and a stronger card.

Yes. Terra builds variable-rate prescription maps for Agras spraying from multispectral or visible-light maps. Have an agronomist approve the rates, then check the import and units on the controller with a small test. See crop scouting and mapping.

SmartFarm Web is DJI's web platform: it finds field borders, makes NDVI prescription maps and syncs them to spray drones. Terra runs on your own PC and adds radiometric multispectral processing and more outputs. DJI says either can make index and prescription maps from Mavic 3M data; SmartFarm isn't offered in every country, so ask us what's available in Canada.

It depends on the edition, the number of devices and whether the licence is for one year or permanent. We send an itemized quote, alone or with a Mavic 3 Multispectral kit. Ask for a quote.
