You’ve asked for it, and now it’s here. Now you can share a complete view-only map with a client or someone else who does not have a DroneDeploy account. Simply click the “Share” button, copy the link and share it with whomever you choose.
Before, a client that clicked a link to view a shared map would see only the specific map layer shared with them. To see the complete map, the client would need to create and login to a DroneDeploy account.
Now sharing a map via link will give the viewer complete view-only access to the map, including the ability to:
See the satellite base layer
Explore all layers of the map, including the 2D orthomosaic, 3D model, elevation map, and plant health
View any annotations or measurements on the map
View and toggle any overlays attached to the map
View and export any existing exports that the map owner has already generated
Please note: Map share links generated previously will still show only the individual layer shared, so don’t worry — there won’t be any surprises when your client clicks a link you already shared with them.
Have questions or feedback about the changes to link sharing? Let us know in the comments below.
I suggest taking a look at the “Give Clients View-only Map Access to Clients That Don’t Have a DroneDeploy Account” section on our Product Release Wrap-up July 2017 blog post.
Not quite sure I understand - DroneDeploy is a free app and service. Sharing maps just allows you to collaborate with clients and show them what you’ve been working on.
Organizations are a feature for Business and Enterprise customers only. You should be able to find all that and more at Create an Organization if you are either.
Is there a limit to number of clients you add to organization, will they have access to all maps, also will one in organization need a DD account? thanks
