Measurement and Integration of Parrots: Floor Management and ANAFI

The new Measure and Parrot integration: Ground Control with ANAFI drone platforms enables a simplified end-to-end solution that, according to the companies, will support the rapid scaling of corporate drone fleets.

Measure has seen some major changes: it was recently acquired by AgEagle ™ Aerial Systems Inc. (NYSE American: UAVS) (“AgEagle” or the “Company”), and Measure’s Brandon Declet Torres has been named CEO of AgEagle. The Parrot ANAFI platform, including the US-made and blue sUAS solution ANAFI USA, has also grown rapidly in recent years: Parrot has developed partnerships and integrations with many of the leading names in the industry.

Now the European drone company Parrot® announces that Measure and Parrot have completed the integration of the Measure Ground Control system into the ANAFI platforms.

Through a secure mobile flight management application combined with a cloud-based management portal, Measure’s award-winning Ground Control software ensures safe manual and automated missions and captures real-time data-driven insights that companies need to take advantage of the transformative benefits of their ANAFI drone or drone fleet . The software was seamlessly paired with the quick deployment and ease of use of ANAFI to provide mission personnel with the standard Ground Control flight tools and the ability to customize and expand their use by selecting additional program management and data processing functions.

Jesse Stepler, Measure Senior Vice President, Strategy and Product, said, “As a hardware-independent solution, Ground Control was designed to be compatible with the best drone platforms in its class, including now Parrot ANAFI. We are excited to work with Parrot to provide enterprise customers with a fully integrated Software-as-a-Solution (SaaS) platform that enables them to easily manage their ANAFI drones, which are used to achieve key operational goals to fly, track and manage in real time efficiently and safely. “

Ground Control functions now enabled on the ANAFI platform include manual flight control and data collection, program management and compliance, data processing and analysis, integration with existing customer workflow systems, and much more.

Parrot’s Director of Strategic Partnerships, Jerome Bouvard, said: “Parrot remains committed to the continuous innovation of our ANAFI platform through the addition of high performing, value adding partners. The integration with Measure Ground Control encourages Parrot, professional operators who want to deploy drones on a large scale, to provide the most rugged, safest and most reliable drone solutions. “

Measure Ground Control is now available for download on iOS systems for use with ANAFI, ANAFI USA, and ANAFI Thermal platform drones. The software will be available for Android systems later this year.
