Instant Media Upload and Storage

Seamless, automatic media transfer from drone to cloud—in real time.

Instant Media Upload transforms the way mission-critical media is handled: high-resolution photos upload live during flight, while full-video recordings stream directly to your central portal once the aircraft lands. Eliminate manual transfer steps and gain full visibility from the field to your team in seconds.

Key Capabilities

Live photo and video uploads during flight—each image and video captured appears instantly in your portal.

End-to-end AES-256 encryption and optional on-premises or locally hosted deployments.

Automatic time-stamps, geo-tags and flight-log association for full traceability.

Dramatic workflow reduction: manual file handling eliminated; minutes-long processes cut to seconds.

Built for enterprise scale: mission-grade reliability across inspections, public-safety, enterprise workflows.

How It Works

A

During flight, each photo captured on the drone controller is instantly encrypted and sent to the DroneControl Portal via a secure cloud connection.

B

When the drone lands, the recorded video file is automatically uploaded from the controller to the portal—no SD-cards, no manual transfer.

C

The media arrives in your cloud environment, already time-stamped, geo-tagged, linked to the corresponding flight log.

D

Command teams, analysts and stakeholders can access, tag and review the media in real time—while the mission is still live.

  • Speed & situational awareness: Teams in the field and command centre gain visibility immediately rather than waiting for file transfers.

  • Efficiency boost: What used to take 20-30 minutes—landing, card removal, laptop upload—now happens automatically.

  • Data integrity & traceability: From capture to cloud you maintain evidence-grade metadata without human error.

  • Operational readiness: Whether inspections, emergency response or enterprise missions, media is available as soon as it’s required.

Why It Matters

Security & Compliance

Instant Media Upload uses AES-256 encryption for all transfers and supports local-market hosting or on-premises deployments. Each file is automatically time-stamped, geo-tagged, and associated with its flight log, providing full chain-of-custody for regulatory, enterprise or public-safety use.

Integrations

This feature is natively integrated with DroneControl’s platform: your Flight App captures the media, the Portal receives it, and your backend workflows (logs, tagging, sharing) flow seamlessly. It complements all other modules—flight logging, team management and fleet oversight—turning captured media into actionable intelligence without delay.

Typical Use Cases

A rapid public-safety deployment where live aerial images are streamed to a command centre while cuts are still flying.

Infrastructure inspection teams landing a drone and instantly uploading full-video to central teams for immediate analysis.

Enterprises requiring full control of data workflows—secure transfer, traceability and real-time access from remote locations.
