Point One Navigation and DroneDeploy partner to deliver centimeter-accurate positioning for aerial and ground reality capture

June 18, 2025

SAN FRANCISCO, June 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Point One Navigation, a leader in precise positioning technology, and DroneDeploy, the leading aerial and ground reality capture platform, today announced a renewed commitment and continued collaboration to enable DroneDeploy customers to receive seamless, centimeter-level accuracy from Point One's Polaris RTK corrections network across thousands of flights in the US and globally.

DroneDeploy's unified reality capture platform is transforming the way businesses collect, manage and interpret reality capture data from aerial drones, 360 cameras and ground robots. Point One's Polaris RTK corrections network, integrated directly into DroneDeploy's unified platform, provides customers with seamless access to the world's largest, professionally managed RTK network, and enables the centimeter-level accuracy DroneDeploy pilots demand. Over the past two years, Point One has powered more than 70,000 RTK-enabled DroneDeploy customer flights, providing the critical positioning accuracy needed in aerial mapping, 3D modeling, site analysis and more.

"Precision is fundamental to reality capture – without accurate positioning, the data collected becomes significantly less valuable for critical decision making," said Aaron Nathan, CEO of Point One Navigation. "Our partnership with DroneDeploy demonstrates how Polaris' centimeter-level accuracy and 99.9% uptime are enabling thousands of professionals to capture incredibly precise data for use across many critical applications. These users depend on absolute precision, and our positioning platform ensures they can trust their reality capture data completely."

"Our goal with this product is to make advanced technology and high accuracy data accessible to everyone" said James Pipe, Chief Product Officer at DroneDeploy. "Partnering with Point One has enabled us to deliver an amazing experience with zero setup or configuration. As we continue to expand our high accuracy flight and robotic automation capabilities, Point One RTK corrections will enable more customers and projects to operate with complete confidence in their spatial data."

The partnership addresses growing demand for precision across multiple industries where DroneDeploy's customers operate, including construction progress monitoring, energy infrastructure inspection, and safety applications. With Point One's professionally-run, global RTK corrections network, featuring thousands of actively monitored base stations with strict installation standards and industrial-grade hardware, DroneDeploy customers can rely on consistent centimeter-level accuracy for their critical operations.
