Mavic Air Compatibility with DroneDeploy

I have use DD with Mavic air Data, Mapping with Mavic Air is not as simple as it should but is still possible.

First of all, it has reliable geotagg but in a different field in the exif data.
second, you can fly manually or use Flight Plan for DJI drones app. I have use it in iOS, but is not free.

In the following link you could see a little area I flew with the app I mentioned above

To see geoTagg and other information in exif data, you can use exiftool (https://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/) and run this command exiftool -csv -r your_folder > out.csv
GPS Altitude is only the flight altitude, so to get absolute altitude you should add the elevation of the place.

I have process Mavic Images in DroneDeploy and Pix4d and got good result, of course is easier buy another drone however if you want to try Mavic Air you could do what I told you.
