The DJI Matrice 4E is a professional RTK mapping drone engineered for survey-grade accuracy on every flight. With a built-in RTK module delivering 1 cm + 1 ppm horizontal accuracy, a 1-inch 20MP CMOS sensor, integrated laser rangefinder, and an industry-leading 49-minute flight time, the M4E is purpose-built for surveyors, GIS professionals, and mapping teams who need centimeter-level results straight from the aircraft.

Survey-Grade RTK — Built In, Not Bolted On
Unlike drones that require an external RTK module, the Matrice 4E integrates RTK directly into the aircraft. That means centimeter-level positioning on every mission with no extra hardware to mount, configure, or carry. Horizontal accuracy reaches 1 cm + 1 ppm and vertical accuracy 1.5 cm + 1 ppm — the kind of precision your deliverables demand.
Feed the M4E from a network RTK correction source or pair it with a base station for fully independent operation in areas without network coverage.
1-Inch CMOS Sensor — Mapping-Grade Imagery
The M4E's 1-inch 20MP CMOS sensor captures high-resolution imagery with wide dynamic range and excellent low-light performance. At an 84° field of view and 24mm equivalent focal length, a single pass covers wide ground swaths — minimising flight time and maximising data density per mission.
Paired with the integrated laser rangefinder (1,800 m range), the M4E collects accurate ground elevation data alongside imagery — reducing the need for dense GCP networks.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Matrice 4E have built-in RTK?
Yes. The M4E includes an integrated RTK module as standard, delivering horizontal accuracy of 1 cm + 1 ppm and vertical accuracy of 1.5 cm + 1 ppm without any external hardware.
What is the difference between the Matrice 4E and Matrice 4T?
The Matrice 4E is optimised for geospatial tasks — surveying, mapping, and GIS — with its built-in RTK and 1" mapping camera. The Matrice 4T adds a thermal infrared camera and NIR auxiliary light, making it suited for inspection, emergency response, and night operations.
How long can the Matrice 4E fly?
The M4E achieves up to 49 minutes on standard propellers (46 minutes with low-noise propellers) in no-wind conditions. Hover time is up to 42 minutes — one of the longest in its class.
Does the M4E work with network RTK corrections?
Yes. The Matrice 4E supports both network RTK (NTRIP) corrections via the remote controller and traditional base station RTK setups for use in areas without network coverage.
What camera does the Matrice 4E use?
The M4E uses a 1-inch 20MP CMOS sensor with an 84° FOV and 24mm equivalent focal length, shooting JPEG and DNG (RAW) images at up to 5472×3648 pixels. It also records 4K/30fps video.
Is the Matrice 4E waterproof?
The M4E is IP54 rated, providing resistance to dust ingress and water splashes from any direction — suitable for field operations in light rain and dusty survey environments.
