DJI MATRICE 4E FLAGSHIP INTELLIGENT MULTI-SENSOR COMPACT DRONE

Overview

The DJI Matrice 4E is a next-generation surveying and mapping drone engineered for geospatial professionals who demand accuracy, efficiency, and reliability. As part of the Matrice 4 Series, it combines a high-performance 4/3" wide camera with multi-directional capture, Distortion Correction 2.0, and a remarkable 49-minute maximum flight time, making it an exceptional choice for large-scale surveys, digital twins, and complex 3D modeling.

With 5-directional oblique capture, fast 0.5-second shooting intervals, and factory-calibrated optics, the Matrice 4E streamlines end-to-end photogrammetry workflows—from flight planning to data capture to reconstruction in DJI Terra. Designed for demanding field environments, it pairs advanced obstacle sensing with a robust airframe and enterprise-grade transmission for confident operation in real-world conditions.

• Up to 49 minutes of flight time for extended missions and fewer battery swaps.
• 5-directional oblique capture improves mapping efficiency by up to 40%.
• 0.5-second capture interval for rapid, high-density data collection.
• Distortion Correction 2.0 keeps residual distortion under two pixels for survey-grade outputs.
• Factory-calibrated cameras for consistent, high-accuracy photogrammetry.
• Smart 3D Capture for streamlined 3D route planning directly from the RC Plus 2 controller.
• Enhanced obstacle sensing and enterprise-grade O4 video transmission for safe, reliable operations.

Key Features

Unparalleled Mapping Efficiency

• Extended Endurance for Large Sites
  Up to 49 minutes of flight time (no wind, standard propellers) allows the Matrice 4E to cover more area per sortie, reducing mission count and on-site time.
• 5-Directional Oblique Capture
  Capture nadir and oblique imagery in a single mission. The five-directional capture mode boosts mapping efficiency by up to 40%, ideal for dense urban environments, vertical structures, and complex terrain.
• High-Speed Data Collection
  A 0.5-second minimum photo interval enables dense ground sampling at higher speeds, helping teams finish aerial surveys faster while maintaining data quality.

Precision Redefined

• Distortion Correction 2.0
  Advanced optical and algorithmic correction ensures residual distortion under two pixels, delivering highly accurate maps and models suitable for engineering, planning, and cadastral applications.
• Factory-Calibrated Camera System
  Each wide camera is precision-calibrated at the factory to ensure consistent intrinsic parameters. When paired with DJI Terra, the Matrice 4E produces survey-grade reconstructions with minimal post-processing overhead.

Operational Simplicity & Safety

• Smart 3D Capture
  Plan and execute advanced 3D missions directly from the DJI RC Plus 2 Enterprise controller. Smart 3D Capture intelligently generates optimal flight paths for buildings, infrastructure, and complex sites—no additional laptop required in the field.
• Comprehensive Obstacle Sensing
  An omnidirectional binocular vision system, supplemented by 3D infrared sensing on the underside, delivers robust obstacle detection forward, backward, laterally, upward, and downward—supporting safer operations in cluttered or dynamic environments.
• Enterprise-Grade O4 Transmission
  The O4 Enterprise video transmission system provides up to 25 km FCC-rated range (environment dependent) with 1080p/30fps live view, multi-antenna redundancy, and low latency for precise control and situational awareness.

Professional Applications

Surveying & Mapping

• Large-Scale Aerial Surveys
  Ideal for national, municipal, and private-sector geospatial teams, the Matrice 4E combines long endurance, rapid capture intervals, and multi-directional imaging for high-productivity corridor and area mapping.
• Topographic & Photogrammetric Modeling
  Achieve high-accuracy DSMs, DTMs, and orthomosaics with the calibrated camera system, Distortion Correction 2.0, and seamless integration with DJI Terra.

Construction, Infrastructure & Planning

• Site Development & Progress Tracking
  Generate detailed 3D models and progress reports for construction sites, industrial facilities, and infrastructure projects, supporting more accurate planning, billing, and stakeholder communication.
• Urban & Building Modeling
  The 5-directional oblique imaging is ideal for digital twins, façade capture, urban planning, and heritage conservation, delivering rich detail on vertical surfaces and complex skylines.

Asset & Structural Inspections

• Infrastructure & Structural Assessments
  Use the wide and telephoto cameras to capture high-resolution imagery of bridges, towers, roofs, and industrial assets, enabling more informed maintenance decisions and documentation.
• High-Resolution Surface Analysis
  Detailed imagery supports crack detection, material degradation assessment, and precise measurement workflows across critical infrastructure and large-scale assets.
