Once your project is created and you're on the home screen, you can start processing your imagery. If you need to update information about the images before processing, use the Flight Data tab.
You can perform the following tasks in the Manage group:
- View the Images table
- Add and remove images
- Enable and disable images
- Assign group names
Images table
The Images table provides information about each image in your collection. Interact with the table to obtain information and sort your images.

Add and remove images
To show you how multiple flights and collections affect your products, Drone2Map allows you to add and remove images from a project. To add images, complete the following steps:
- On the Flight Data tab, in the Manage group, click Add Images.
- Follow these steps to add images to a project.
To remove images from a project, complete the following steps:
- Select one or more images from the map or the images table.
- On the Flight Data tab, in the Manage group, click Remove Images.
- Click Yes to confirm or No to cancel.
Enable and disable images
Images added to your project are enabled by default, meaning they are included when processing. There are times you may want to disable select images before processing your images but keep them in the project. By disabling images, the images remain included with the project, but will not be included during processing. To enable images, complete the following steps:
- Select one or more images from the map or the images table.
- On the Flight Data tab, in the Manage group, click Enable Images.
- Click Yes to confirm.
To disable images, complete the following steps:
- Select one or more images.
- On the Flight Data tab, in the Manage group, click Disable Images.
- Click Yes to confirm or No to cancel.
Group name
Some sensors capture individual spectral bands as separate images and group them into folders based on the spectral band. When processing images from these sensors, each folder of images must be added to your project. For known sensors, when the folders are added to your project, Drone2Map autopopulates the group name for each group based on the name given by the sensor. When the sensor is not known, Drone2Map assigns a default value. You have the option to change the group name in the Image Properties window. To edit the group name, complete the following steps:
- Select one or more images.
- On the Flight Data tab, in the Manage group, click Group Names.
- Enter the group name.
- Click OK.
To clear an assigned group name, select one or more images, click Group Names, and clear the group name.
