Connecting drone remote control – POICloud
In order to use services such as POICloud or POIConnect/EasyPOI, all drones involved in the operation must be connected to our cloud service. How this works is explained in the following section.
DJI-PilotApp User Interface
First, the following view appears on the drone remote control screen. Under Cloud Service (1), you have the option to add a cloud service. By default, the message ‘Not logged in’ appears here.
Clicking this button opens the menu for cloud services. Since POICloud is a third-party service, you must select the Open Platforms control panel (2) here.
Next, you need to enter the corresponding web address/URL (3). In the case of POICloud, this would be https://poicloud.de/cloud. Click on Connect and the drone remote control will establish a connection to POICloud.
Registration POICloud
In the login window that appears, enter your email address (4) and password (5). These details are the same as the POICloud login details you used when creating your account. Click on the login button (6) to log in.
Selection Organization & Team
After logging in, the POICloud user interface home page opens. Here, you must first select the appropriate organisation (7). If one has already been created and the specified account is a member of it, the selection is made automatically.
In addition, this overview offers the option of activating a 14-day trial access for POIConnect. To do so, simply click on the Start free 14-day trial button (8). Once activated, functions such as the automatic transfer of POIs from the drone to the POI app will be available for a limited period of time.
After selecting the organisation, a window opens in which the default settings for data synchronisation can be configured. It is important that both options are ticked (9). Click OK (10) to confirm the settings.
All teams included in the organization are now displayed in the overview. After selecting the appropriate team (11) and uploading, all currently created areas are visible on the drone remote control. Markings made with the drone also appear only in the team to which the drone is currently linked.
When you return to the remote control’s start screen, the selected organization and active team will now appear in the cloud services overview (12) and the link will be complete.

Activate License
Once the trial licence has been activated, please be sure to contact us. Using the drone ID, we can then permanently activate the licence for POIConnect if you have purchased a drone and software package from our shop. Auch für die Freischaltung von POIStudio sollte nach erfolgter Installation eine Kontaktaufnahme erfolgen, damit wir euch den Zugangscode für eine Dauerlizenz zukommen lassen können.
If required, we are also happy to carry out installation and setup via remote maintenance.
You can request your licence at the following email address: info@thermaldrones.de

Share image data!
Would you like to support us in the further development of our software? Then share the thermal images you took during your flights with us! We can then use these to train our AI in POIStudio, for example. This will soon make the recognition of living creatures in the field even faster and more reliable.
It also brings us one step closer to our goal of fully automated animal identification in the course of wildlife rescue!
