In the surveying and mapping industry, the aerial image application of drones is becoming more and more extensive, and the amount of data is becoming increasingly large. The market needs computing and processing equipment from desktop to mobile portable, multi-machine cluster , mobile multi-machine cluster, etc.
Since Xi’an Kunlong Computer Company has focused on the application of aerial image processing of drones in 2013, we have accumulated a large number of performance test data of various specifications and sizes of hardware in different eras, as well as many years of rich successful cases, experienced test engineers and technical support engineers, and many years of experience in hardware configuration and performance optimization.
Entering 2020, for the latest listed computing architecture, tilt photography modeling, orthophoto processing and other applications, we have once again launched a variety of solutions with better configuration, faster speed and rich models – desktop workstations , mobile workstations, multi-machine clusters, mobile clusters, etc., with significant technical features:
- The recommended machine hardware configuration, its CPU+GPU performance, memory, hard disk io, network port, and maximum performance in every link of the computing process, without bottlenecks and no blind spots.
- A complete and reliable computing solution is provided for different computing scales and different budgets.
- Ensure that different image processing software (such as: Context Capture, Pix4D, Inpho, DJI , etc.) can achieve the ultimate performance of workstation processing

2.1 Recommended single-screen portable configuration


2.2 Three-screen portable workstation configuration solution


(III) Recommended multi-machine cluster configuration
The calculation volume of massive aerial image data is huge, and the processing time of a single machine’s computing power is too long and the efficiency is low. With the help of the most advanced multi-machine parallel cluster processing system, air three processing and three-dimensional modeling are carried out, which greatly shortens the processing time.
