DJI Matrice 4 Series: Next-Generation Enterprise Drones with Built-In RTK
The DJI Matrice 4 Series is here, setting a new benchmark in industrial and commercial drone technology. With built-in RTK (Real-Time Kinematics) for superior accuracy, advanced obstacle avoidance, and a modular payload system, the Matrice 4 Enterprise (M4E) and Matrice 4 Thermal (M4T) are designed for precision inspections, surveying, emergency response, and more.
For businesses looking to streamline operations with cutting-edge UAV technology, the DJI Matrice 4 Series offers unmatched reliability, stability, and efficiency. In this article, we’ll explore the features of both models, the D-RTK 3 base station, and essential accessories like the spotlight and speaker, which enhance mission capability.
Matrice 4 Enterprise (M4E): Precision for Asset Inspections & Surveying
The DJI Matrice 4 Enterprise (M4E) is built for professionals who demand accuracy, efficiency, and ease of use. Featuring a high-resolution camera with a mechanical shutter, built-in RTK, and extended flight time, this drone is perfect for:
✅ Surveying & Mapping – Thanks to its mechanical shutter, the M4E eliminates motion blur, ensuring precise aerial mapping and photogrammetry. When paired with D-RTK 3, centimetre-level accuracy can be achieved for highly detailed land surveys.
✅ Asset & Structural Inspections – Industrial and commercial property managers, construction firms, and inspectors can capture detailed imagery of facades, roofs, and infrastructure without the need for scaffolding or dangerous manual access.
✅ Longer Missions & Better Efficiency – The M4E features an extended battery life, allowing for more comprehensive inspections and data collection without frequent landings.
Matrice 4 Thermal (M4T): Dual-Camera Versatility for Emergency & Industrial Use
The DJI Matrice 4 Thermal (M4T) adds a radiometric thermal camera alongside the standard visual camera, making it a game-changer for:
🔥 Firefighting & Emergency Response – The thermal imaging allows teams to identify heat sources, locate missing persons, and assess fire spread quickly.
🔧 Utility & Industrial Inspections – Ideal for power line, solar farm, and pipeline inspections, thermal imaging helps detect overheating components and energy loss with ease.
🛑 Search & Rescue – The ability to detect heat signatures in low-visibility conditions makes the M4T an invaluable tool for SAR teams working in remote or hazardous locations.
Like the M4E, the M4T features built-in RTK, ensuring that both thermal and RGB data capture is accurate and reliable.
Built-in RTK: Unparalleled Accuracy for Aerial Mapping & Inspections
One of the biggest upgrades in the DJI Matrice 4 Series is its built-in RTK module, which allows for centimetre-level positioning accuracy.
💡 What does this mean for professionals?
- Surveying & Mapping – No need for ground control points (GCPs) in many cases.
- Inspection Workflows – RTK ensures that repeated flights can capture data from the exact same location and angle, essential for progress monitoring.
For those needing even greater accuracy, the D-RTK 3 base station can be used to enhance positioning precision further.
D-RTK 3: Enhancing Positioning for Surveying & Enterprise Workflows
The D-RTK 3 High-Precision GNSS Mobile Station is an essential accessory for surveyors, engineers, and asset managers. It supports GPS, BeiDou, Galileo, and GLONASS, providing real-time differential corrections that improve flight stability and positioning accuracy.
Using the D-RTK 3 with the M4E or M4T ensures the most precise geospatial data for:
📍 Topographic Surveys
📍 Construction Site Mapping
📍 Infrastructure Monitoring
For businesses that require high-accuracy mapping without GCPs, the D-RTK 3 is a must-have.
DJI Matrice 4 Accessories: Expanding Mission Capabilities
Beyond the built-in power of the Matrice 4 Series, DJI has introduced key accessories to expand operational capabilities:
🔦 Spotlight – Designed for night operations, search & rescue, and low-light inspections, this high-powered spotlight enhances visibility when needed most.
📢 Speaker – Enables real-time communication for emergency responders, security teams, and site managers. Whether directing a missing person or issuing instructions remotely, the speaker ensures clear, effective audio transmission.
Both accessories integrate seamlessly with the DJI Pilot 2 software, allowing operators to control and adjust settings with ease.
Why Choose the DJI Matrice 4 Series for Your Business?
