Download a plan from Mission Planner - PIX4Dcapture Pro

For an optimal workflow, it is possible to design a data acquisition plan containing one or multiple missions on a computer (desktop or laptop) in the cloud-based flight planning tool called Mission Planner and to download it into the PIX4Dcapture Pro app for further execution in the field.

This allows the user to take advantage of a larger screen size during the mission creation, allowing for better and more accurate planning
