Live Track of DJI M30T

Curt
Looking for advise on live tracking and dropping pins into SARTopo from the RC Plus DJI M30T. Anyone out here doing this now?

    Hi Curt

    While we do not have a drone specific integration at this time, any device that is able to report its position via a REST API should be able to be added as a live track (please see this documentation for more information on live tracking: https://training.caltopo.com/all_users/share/live-tracking). If your drones can do this then you should be able to display their position updates in CalTopo/SARTopo. 

    This is the support that we are able to offer at this time, but I would be very curious to hear from other drone users (or back from you if you are able to set it up), so we can help the drone community at large.

    Rachel If you could make the APK available on your website as a sideload app (not in the play store) you might gain more intrest in this feature as we can not get the play store on the DJI RC Plus controller used for the enterprise drones such as the M30T.

    Hinch, Steve

    We are looking at ways to track our drones also. Remote ID will push a signal and I see there are dongles available to capture this data I would hope that it could be pushed to SARTopo.

    We would have an interest in tracking our drone also.

    Did anything ever come of this? We have a DJI M30T as well and would like to be able to see the live location of the drone on CALTopo.

    Nothing yet other than attaching a phone to the M30T

    Have you tried the "Live Track - Fleet, Email, Other" under Add > Locator??

    My group has 2 M30T’s. We like all the other features of Caltopo live tracking, and the ability to track our drones with this program would be a huge benefit. Perhaps Caltopo would work with another software company to integrate a program that already exists. I believe both companies would benefit from this.

    Has anyone found a solution to this?

    I reached out to CalTopo support to see if they know of any new features in this area. 

    I imagine DJI telemtry is rather locked down. If there is a way to easily extract live LLA data it wouldn't be too difficult to convert it into a Live Tracker.
