Drone surveying software
Plan, capture and hand off clean aerial data faster
Wingtra drone surveying software helps teams produce clean aerial survey data faster and move it into their existing processing, CAD and GIS workflows.
From flight plan to clean data handoff
Wingtra software connects office work with field capture, helping teams plan, fly, geotag and hand off processing-ready aerial data in one connected workflow.

With Wingtra we can streamline our deliverables from an easy setup in the field, efficient processing in the office, and a quick deliverable to the client.
Built to get the data right before processing starts
Wingtra helps teams reduce the planning, positioning and execution mistakes that lead to re-flights, office rework and deliverable issues.
Advanced flight planning
Plan for the data quality you need before takeoff
Wingtra brings survey-critical planning inputs into one guided, visual workflow. Field teams can see what affects data quality before flying, helping them capture more consistent data and reduce costly re-flights.
- 3D views with terrain context
- GeoJSON layers, orthoimages and imported terrain models
- Ground sample distance visualization along the flight path
- Visual line of sight and flight height visualization
GNSS and coordinate system consistency
Ensure correct positioning and coordinates before processing
Even high-quality imagery can fail if GNSS setup or coordinate systems are wrong. Wingtra helps teams get clean data before processing, reducing the risk of invalid deliverables, re-flights and hours of office rework.
- 6,500+ published coordinate systems and automatic transformations
- Direct import of RINEX and .t0x files from existing GNSS workflows
- Guided base and checkpoint setup with WingtraGROUND
Team collaboration
Standardize execution across crews
As teams and projects scale, outdated plans, manual handoffs and inconsistent field decisions can lead to poor data, re-flights and delays. Wingtra keeps office and field teams aligned around the latest plan and project context.
- Flight plans syncs between devices
- Review and comment before flying
- Multi-pilot projects coordination

FAQ
What software is included with every Wingtra drone?
Every Wingtra drone includes WingtraESSENTIAL, the core drone surveying software for standard mapping missions.
With WingtraESSENTIAL, you can plan flights, fly WingtraRAY, capture aerial data, geotag images and export geotagged images to your own processing software. No added software subscription is required for this core workflow.
Can I plan on desktop and sync to the field tablet?
Yes. You can plan missions from your browser on your desktop or laptop, or plan directly on the field tablet in the Wingtra app.
When the tablet is connected to the internet, flight plans created in your browser sync automatically to the Wingtra app. This lets office teams prepare missions in advance, while field teams can still create or adjust missions on site before flying.
Can I work offline in the field?
Yes. You can plan, fly and capture aerial data in the field without an internet connection.
Before going offline, download the underlying map and terrain data you need while you still have internet access. This gives you the right site context when working offline in the field.
Can Wingtra run in fully cloud-restricted environments?
The standard Wingtra workflow uses browser-based software and the tablet-based Wingtra app through a cloud account, so syncing between browser and tablet requires internet access.
If your organization needs a fully air-gapped workflow with no internet connection at any time, Wingtra can support this through a different software setup. This configuration does not include all features available in the connected workflow.
What is the difference between Wingtra software, the Wingtra app and WingtraPRO?
Wingtra software is the browser-based software environment used for planning, geotagging, processing, visualization and collaboration.
The Wingtra app is the tablet app used in the field for flight planning, flight control, pre-flight checks, data capture, and the WingtraGROUND workflow.
The Wingtra software and the Wingtra app use the same cloud account, so flight plans and project data sync automatically between office and field.
WingtraPRO is a software plan. It adds advanced planning, coordinate workflows and team collaboration features to the Wingtra software workflow.
All Wingtra customers get access to Wingtra software and the Wingtra app. The software plan determines which capabilities are available in those tools.
Does Wingtra force me into a closed software workflow?
No, the data workflow is open.
You can use common survey positioning sources, including base station or CORS data, and export standard geotagged image outputs to your preferred photogrammetry, CAD or GIS software.
But flight planning, data capture and geotagging work with Wingtra drones and Wingtra payloads only. This integrated setup keeps planning, capture and geotagging consistent and the data accurate.
Do I need WingtraPRO?
WingtraESSENTIAL is enough when you need the standard workflow: plan missions, fly, capture data, geotag images and export to your own processing software.
WingtraPRO makes sense when your sites, missions or teams become more complex. It adds advanced planning, project organization, coordinate system support and collaboration features that help make aerial data capture more repeatable across pilots and projects.
Can I process in Wingtra software?
Yes. The WingtraUNLIMITED license adds processing, visualization and sharing.
Use it when you want to create outputs such as orthomosaics, digital surface models and point clouds without relying on separate photogrammetry software.
Which workflows are not a fit for Wingtra software?
Wingtra is built for drone mapping and surveying workflows where teams need accurate, georeferenced data from above.
It is not usually the right fit for close-range or highly vertical inspection work, such as detailed façade inspection, tower inspection, bridge underside inspection or asset inspection workflows that depend on hovering close to structures and capturing oblique detail from many angles.
For those workflows, a multirotor inspection drone may be more suitable.
