What you receive
The forms a delivered mission takes, and the record that comes with every one of them.
Captured data is processed and quality checked before it reaches you. What arrives depends on the mission type.
Forms of delivery
Imagery. Visual capture indexed to position on the site or structure, so a given frame can be located and found again on a later mission.
Measurements. Dimensioned output from survey work: volumes, areas, distances, elevations.
Alerts. Where a mission is looking for a specific condition, the delivery leads with what was found rather than with the full capture. Thermal anomaly review and perimeter checks usually take this form.
Change comparisons. For missions in a series, the difference against a previous occurrence rather than a fresh state. See Recurring inspections.
Reports. A written account of what was captured and what it shows, for mission types where the output is a judgement rather than a dataset.
The mission record
Every delivery carries its record: what was requested, when it flew, the conditions it flew in, and what was captured. The record is what lets you defend the result later, and what makes two missions comparable.
Where a mission was held or an occurrence in a series did not fly, that is in the record too.
Quality checking
Delivery is not automatic on landing. Capture is reviewed before it is released, and a mission that did not achieve what it was requested to achieve is reflown rather than delivered short. Because the aircraft is already on site, a reflight is a scheduling question rather than another mobilisation.
What happens to it afterwards
Delivered data belongs to you. It is retained and remains accessible under the terms set out in Data you own and Retention and access.
It is never listed for licence unless the site owner has explicitly opted in. See Rights and opt-in.
