FAQ
Why should I choose WingtraGROUND over hiring survey service providers?
WingtraGROUND lets you collect survey data yourself, on demand. External providers are expensive and cost you project time to turn around your data.
With its user-friendly, all-in-one system, you can achieve professional-grade accuracy without specialized training and get a return on investment for data collection at a fraction of the cost and as fast and often as you want.
Is WingtraGROUND suitable for someone without surveying expertise?
Yes! WingtraGROUND is designed for ease of use and is super intuitive. Its step-by-step guidance, pre-configured tools, and automated workflows ensure you can collect accurate data confidently, even without prior experience.
I already own GNSS equipment. Why should I buy WingtraGROUND?
WingtraGROUND eliminates the hassle of configuring multiple tools and software.
Its seamless, integrated workflow saves even the most seasoned experts time, reduces errors, and simplifies data collection, freeing up your time for more projects.
What if I don’t want to use the Wingtra software?
While the Wingtra software provides maximum efficiency with automatic syncing, you can manually download data directly from the GNSS receiver using compatible apps.
This bypasses the seamless workflow and reverts key benefits but is totally possible.
How accurate is the data collected with WingtraGROUND?
WingtraGROUND, combined with a Wingtra PPK drone (WingtraOne GEN II or WingtraRAY), delivers consistent photogrammetry outputs with an accuracy of 3 cm (0.1 ft) or better. The base receiver, high-quality Wingtra sensors, and PPK module ensure reliable, repeatable results.
Checkpoints placed during the guided setup have an accuracy of 1 cm (0.4 in), allowing you to verify and prove the accuracy of your photogrammetry outputs to clients.
This accuracy is achievable using the WingtraRAY drone or WingtraOne GEN II with a PPK module, the Wingtra RGB61 sensor, and a Wingtra software PRO subscription, under optimal conditions, on hard surfaces, and with a well-established known point on site.
What’s included in the WingtraGROUND kit?
Everything you need: GNSS receivers, tripods, durable targets, nails, and a hammer—in a single portable, rugged case for easy transport and setup.
How long does it take to set up WingtraGROUND?
WingtraGROUND is designed for fast setup, so you can start collecting data within minutes. Its pre-configured components and guided workflows bring setup time down to a fraction of what it is with other toolchains.
I’m worried the system might be too complex for me to use.
WingtraGROUND is built for simplicity, with step-by-step guidance and pre-configured tools to ensure you can start collecting data quickly and confidently, even without prior experience.
Our Customer Success team has created countless, easy-to-access tutorials and guides, and our distributors are obsessed with your success.
You are not alone, and you will see that you can do this yourself, even if you have a few questions at the beginning, which we can answer right away.

WingtraGROUND is ideal for occasional users, with an intuitive workflow that requires minimal training. Its all-in-one design ensures you have everything you need when you’re ready to survey.
Even with a few surveys a year, the return on investment is high given the quality of the data and the impact of the insights for only minimum overhead.
Is this worth the cost?
WingtraGROUND offers professional-grade results at a fraction of the cost of traditional surveying setups or repeated service provider fees.
It’s an investment that pays for itself when considering time and man hours saved gathering reliable, survey data across projects of any size and complexity—with minimal expertise required.
* This accuracy is achievable using the WingtraRAY drone with a PPK module, the MAP61, SURVEY61 or INSPECT payloads and a Wingtra software PRO plan, under optimal conditions, on hard surfaces, and with a well-established known point on site. Checkpoints set up during the WingtraGROUND guided process validate the accuracy.
