The DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise Survey Drone with RTK is purpose-built for survey professionals who need centimeter-level accuracy, long flight times, and reliable performance in the field. Whether you're mapping construction sites, mining operations, or large land parcels, this drone delivers the precision and efficiency your projects demand.

Why Survey Professionals Choose the Mavic 3E
The Mavic 3 Enterprise isn't a consumer drone with a survey attachment bolted on — it's engineered from the ground up for professional mapping. The integrated RTK module connects to multiple GNSS constellations (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou) to deliver absolute horizontal accuracy of 1 cm and vertical accuracy of 1.5 cm. That means you can eliminate — or dramatically reduce — the number of ground control points needed on every job.
The 4/3 CMOS sensor with mechanical shutter captures 20-megapixel images without rolling shutter distortion, even at speed. And with up to 45 minutes of flight time, a single charge routinely covers 2 km² of terrain — cutting the number of flights needed per project in half compared to smaller mapping drones.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need ground control points with the RTK model?
RTK dramatically reduces or eliminates the need for GCPs. With a good RTK fix, you can achieve survey-grade accuracy without placing any ground control points — saving significant field time on every project.
What software is compatible with the Mavic 3 Enterprise?
The Mavic 3E integrates with DJI Terra for mission planning and photogrammetry. It's also compatible with third-party platforms including Pix4D, DroneDeploy, and Agisoft Metashape.
Is a Part 107 license required to fly this drone?
Yes. The DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise weighs over 250g and is intended for commercial use, so a FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate is required to operate it commercially in the United States.
What is the difference between the Mavic 3E and Mavic 3T?
The Mavic 3E (Enterprise) is optimized for photogrammetric mapping with a 20MP 4/3 CMOS camera. The Mavic 3T (Thermal) adds a radiometric thermal camera and 56× hybrid zoom, making it better suited for inspection and public safety applications.
Does it work in cold weather?
The Mavic 3E is rated to operate in temperatures as low as -10°C (14°F). Battery performance will reduce in cold conditions — carrying a spare battery is recommended for winter operations.
What warranty comes with the drone?
All DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise drones purchased through Survey Tools Direct come with DJI's standard manufacturer warranty. We also recommend DJI Care Enterprise for accidental damage coverage.
