Drone Images Gallery
The Drone Image Gallery brings folders of geotagged drone photos into your scene and pins each one to its real GPS location. Photos are now uploaded through the AERO AI dashboard, then appear automatically inside the viewer once they have finished processing. Each photo becomes a small camera marker in the world that you can click to open the full image, and groups keep separate flights or sites tied together so a long site history stays organized.
Feature
Upload entire folders or hand picked images directly from the AERO AI dashboard.
Organize photos under a named group, like a flight or a site visit.
Pin every photo to its GPS location automatically using its embedded EXIF data.
Open the full size photo from either the side panel list or the marker in the world.
Fly the camera to any individual photo with a single click.
Delete a single photo or an entire group when you no longer need it.
Uploading Drone Photos From the Dashboard
Photo uploads happen on the AERO AI dashboard, not inside the viewer. Sign in, open the Data Upload page from the dashboard sidebar on the left, and scroll down to the Add Geotagged Images widget.
Type a name into the Group Name field at the top of the widget. The name must be at least 3 characters long.
Click "Select Folder" on the left to pick an entire folder of photos, or click "Select Images" on the right to pick individual JPG, PNG, or TIFF files.
Review the list of selected files that appears below the buttons. Click the gray "Clear" button at the top right of the list if you want to start over.
Click the blue "Upload Geotagged Images" button at the bottom to start the upload. The button shows "Uploading…" while it runs, and a green banner confirms when it finishes.
Your new group is saved to your account and appears inside the viewer the next time you open it.
Finding Your Image Groups in the Viewer
Open the Asset Sidebar on the left side of the viewer, expand the Media section, then expand the Images subsection inside it to see every group you have uploaded. Each group is a collapsible row with the group name on the left, its photo count, and a trash icon on the far right. Click the group header to expand it and see the photos inside.
Every photo with GPS data shows up as a small camera icon in the 3D scene at the location the drone recorded. Click a marker in the viewer to open the full size photo, the same way clicking a row in the side panel does. Photos that were uploaded without GPS data still show in the group list but do not get a marker in the scene.
Browsing and Opening Images
Each image row inside an expanded group shows the file name on the left, an eye icon on the right to fly the camera straight to that photo's marker, and a trash icon next to it. Click anywhere else on the row to open the photo in a full size preview window. Click the dark area around the preview or the close icon in the top right of the window to dismiss it.
Removing Images or Groups
Click the trash icon at the right end of a row to remove a single photo and its scene marker at the same time. Click the trash icon on the right side of a group header to remove an entire group and every marker that belongs to it in one step
