- End-to-end solution:
Paired with DJI drones, Terra delivers a unified hardware and software workflow for data acquisition, processing, application and presentation.
- Mission planning:
Create and automate efficient flight paths ahead of operations, with waypoints, area, oblique and corridor mission planning for common scenarios.
- Data acquisition and mapping:
Collect and centralise drone data, then build 3D maps and models from selected areas.
- Data analysis:
A suite of tools for measurements such as volume and distance, giving key insights about your survey area.
- Massive-scale capability:
Cluster reconstruction with multi-GPU and multi-node collaboration processes 6,000 photos with 1GB of available RAM, making city-scale modelling manageable.
- Industry applications:
Used across surveying and mapping, utilities, public safety, oil and gas, agriculture and cultural heritage preservation.
Customer reviews
“Easy to set up after using the trial free version, learning curve easy with good support from Heliguy”
“Dji terra is one of the best unified platform for processing DJI data. Updates of the software are at par with the industry standards.”
“Tried the 3 mth trial and was impressed with its speed and quality of reconstruction. Compared with another brand I have been using this is much better value hence purchaseing a years sub to the pro version.”

What is the difference between the offline and online licence types for DJI Terra?⌄
DJI Terra offers offline and online licence types. The differences are:
Online version: Requires a stable internet connection to use paid features.
Offline version: After binding to a computer, paid features can be used without an internet connection.
How to activate my DJI Terra License?⌄
Online license:
1. License activation and device binding are required to use the licenses with the desired DJI accounts and on the desired computers.
2. Enter the activation page via the two methods below:
DJI Terra: Launch DJI Terra > User Center > Activated License(s) > Activate New License
Activation Link: Visit https://license.dji.com
3. Input the activation code you received and the desired DJI account that you want to use the license with, then click “Activate.”
4. After successful activation, view the license name, expiry time, and device binding status of the license.
5. Click “Bind” to bind the license to the current computer used. “Bound” will be displayed next to the license of the corresponding license name in Activated License(s).
Offline license:
1. Go to the License Exchange page https://terra-license.djiservice.org and enter your email, your dealer's email, exchange code, and the license request (the .WibuCmRaC file).
2. Click Next to complete license exchange. Wait for an email notification indicating license exchange was successful.
3. For more details, please refer to Preparation Before Using DJI Terra >License Exchange.
What are the system requirements for 3DGS in DJI Terra?⌄
Gaussian Splatting in DJI Terra requires Windows 10 or later (64-bit), at least 32GB RAM, and an NVIDIA graphics card with compute capability 6.1 or higher (minimum 4GB VRAM). For best results, use a card with 8GB VRAM or more and update your drivers to the latest version.
Can I run multiple missions on the same computer in DJI Terra?⌄
Due to limitations in the computer’s processing capacity, you can only run multiple reconstructions at the same time in DJI Terra. They will be processed in the order in which they are added to the lineup.
What’s the purpose of setting an output coordinate system?⌄
The following reconstruction results can be delivered in specified coordinate systems.
Aerotriangulation: an aerotriangulation result file in .xml
2D Reconstruction: dsm.tif, result.tif
3D reconstruction: point cloud files (.las, .ply, .pcd, .s3mb) and model files (.osgb, .ply, .obj,.s3mb, .i3s) is accompanied by a coordinate system instruction file metadata.xml.
What are Ground Control Points? How to obtain Ground Control Points?⌄
Ground Control Points (GCPs) are marked points on the ground with known coordinates and are clearly visible in an image. GCPs can be obtained using photogrammetry methods such as GPS-RTK or a total station.
For more information on GCPs, click here.
Where is the result of map grid output stored in DJI Terra?⌄
Stored in the mission folder:
Mission Name\map\dsm_tiles
Mission Name\map\result_tiles
Shop DJI Terra.
Which DJI drones can utilise real-time mapping and mission planning?⌄
Real-time 3D Mapping and Real-time Mapping: These features are supported by the Phantom 4 RTK (remote controller with screen), Phantom 4 Pro V2.0+, and Phantom 4 Pro V2.0 only.
Detailed Inspection Mission Planning: This feature is supported by the Phantom 4 RTK (remote controller without screen), Matrice 300 Series + H20 Series Payloads, Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced, Matrice 30 Series, and Mavic 3 Enterprise Series.
Waypoints/Area/Oblique/Corridor Mission Planning: Compatible with the Phantom 4 RTK (remote controller with screen), Phantom 4 Pro V2.0, Phantom 4 Pro + V2.0, Phantom 4 Pro, Phantom 4 Advanced, and Phantom 4.
What is DJI Reality?⌄
DJI Reality is an integrated 3D model viewer in DJI Terra. It is available at no extra licensing cost.
For professionals working in surveying, construction, infrastructure inspection, or geospatial analysis, this removes a key friction point in the 3D data workflow.
DJI Reality supports:
Mesh models: for detailed surface visualisation.
3D Gaussian Splatting (3DGS): for photorealistic, immersive rendering.
Point Cloud models: for precise spatial data review.
DJI Reality integrates directly with DJI Terra's reconstruction pipeline, creating a complete end-to-end solution: data capture, processing, visualisation, and sharing, without switching platforms or investing in separate viewing software.
