Generate DJI WPML KMZ mission files for 2D, corridor and orbit (3D model) drone missions directly from QGIS
About
FlyPath is a QGIS plugin for planning autonomous drone mapping missions and exporting them as native DJI WPML KMZ files, loadable directly in the DJI Fly app. Supported drones: DJI Mini 3 Pro, Mini 4 Pro, Mini 5 Pro (community-verified), plus Air 3, Air 3S, Mavic 3 Classic, Mavic 4 Pro and Lito X1 (field-test reports wanted). Plan a 2D grid over a survey polygon, or a corridor along a centre line for linear features such as roads, pipelines and rivers, or an orbit that circles an object with the camera tilted towards it for 3D models. Draw your survey area on the map, set flight altitude and overlap, preview the flight path, and export a ready-to-fly mission file. Choose semi-automatic capture (you set interval capture before takeoff) or full-automatic capture (a waypoint per photo with automatic shooting). An optional terrain follow mode holds a constant height above ground from free global elevation data. Flight lines fly straight and stay inside irregular (L, U, notched) areas, an optional cross-hatch adds a perpendicular pass for 3D and LiDAR, and large surveys can be split into several missions, one per battery.
