Webinar | Drone Magnetometry at Scale: Smoother Flights, Cleaner Data with UgCS
June 1, 2026

UgCS 6.0 is out. It's the biggest update in years, built around one job: planning drone magnetic surveys too large for a single flight.

We'll plan a full magnetic survey on screen, start to finish. You'll see Large Area Splitting turn one polygon into flyable sub-areas, tie lines drop in as a project parameter, Shift Right align a new grid to a past campaign, and Smart AGL 2.0 hold safe distance on every side over rough terrain. Live in UgCS, not a slide deck.

Why Join

  • See Large Area Splitting plan a multi-flight survey as one project, with consistent line spacing across every boundary
  • Watch Smart AGL 2.0 check safe distance to the sides of the drone, not just below and ahead
  • Learn how Shift Right matches a new survey to a historical campaign in a few clicks
  • See real magnetic surveys planned by field teams, with the reasoning behind each decision
  • Get licensing and upgrade questions answered directly, before your renewal

Agenda

  1. What's new in 6.0 (5 min). Quick tour of the release built around planning magnetic surveys at scale. What changed and why it matters for your post-processing time.
  2. Large Area Splitting (15 min, live). Define one polygon, watch how we split it into flyable sub-areas with line spacing that stays consistent across every boundary. The whole survey in one project, however many flights it takes.
  3. Tie lines as a project parameter (7 min, live). Set the frequency once, drop validation lines across the entire survey.
  4. Shift Right: aligning to a historical campaign (8 min, live). Import old lines, set the offset, align a new grid to a past survey.
  5. Smart AGL 2.0 (8 min, live). Terrain following that now checks safe distance to the sides of the drone, not just below and ahead. What that means over ridges and variable terrain.
  6. Case studies from field deployments (10 min). Real magnetic surveys planned in UgCS, with the planning decisions behind them.
  7. Licensing, getting started, and Q&A (7 min). Where Large Projects sit (Expert and Enterprise), renewal and upgrade paths, and your questions live.
