DJI Zenmuse P1

DJI Zenmuse P1 — Flagship Full-Frame Photogrammetry Payload

Ultra-High Resolution. Unmatched Efficiency. Survey-Grade Accuracy.

The DJI Zenmuse P1 is DJI’s premier photogrammetry camera payload, built to deliver high-precision mapping, large-area capture, and survey-grade results with unmatched efficiency. Designed for the DJI Matrice enterprise platform, the P1 combines a 45-megapixel full-frame sensor, interchangeable fixed-focus lenses, a smart shutter, and a stabilized 3-axis gimbal, making it the ultimate choice for professionals who demand accuracy and speed.

From land surveying and cadastral documentation to infrastructure modeling, mining, and emergency mapping, the Zenmuse P1 provides the performance and reliability needed for even the most demanding photogrammetry missions.

45 MP Full-Frame Sensor for Absolute Clarity

At the heart of the P1 is a 45-megapixel full-frame imaging sensor capable of capturing high-resolution photos with exceptional detail and dynamic range.
This allows users to:

• Capture more area per image

• Maintain high point density at higher altitudes

• Achieve superior accuracy with fewer flight lines

• Reduce project time and data-processing load

The large sensor maximizes efficiency for both 2D orthomosaics and high-precision 3D reconstruction.

Smart Oblique Capture for 3D Modeling

For urban and structural mapping, the P1 introduces Smart Oblique Capture, automatically rotating the gimbal to capture images at multiple angles during flight.
This results in:

• Better building-edge clarity

• Higher model accuracy

• Sharper details on walls, roofs, and angled surfaces

• Fewer blind spots and improved reconstruction

The feature dramatically improves the quality of city models, asset inspections, and complex terrain mapping.

Global Mechanical Shutter for Distortion-Free Data

The Zenmuse P1 integrates a global mechanical shutter with a shutter speed of up to 1/2000s, eliminating rolling-shutter distortion that can compromise mapping accuracy.
Benefits include:

• Crisp, distortion-free aerial photos

• Accurate data even at high flight speeds

• Better results for fast, large-area missions

Combined with the stabilized gimbal, the P1 delivers reliable imagery under challenging flight conditions.

Interchangeable DJI DL Lenses (24 mm, 35 mm, 50 mm)

The P1 supports three high-quality DJI DL prime lenses, enabling operators to choose the ideal focal length for their mission:

• 24 mm – Large-area coverage, wide FOV

• 35 mm – Balanced option for mapping and inspections

• 50 mm – Best for vertical structures and fine-detail capture

All lenses offer high sharpness, low distortion, and fixed-focus reliability for survey-grade imaging.

High-Efficiency Mapping for Large Areas

Combined with compatible DJI flight platforms, the P1 dramatically reduces total mission time:

• Fewer passes required

• Up to hundreds of acres mapped per flight

• Optimized for high-altitude, high-efficiency photogrammetry

• Reduced ground-control requirements when paired with RTK/PPK

This makes the P1 ideal for large construction sites, agriculture boundaries, mining zones, floodplains, and land development surveys.

Integrated GNSS + IMU for Survey-Grade Accuracy

The payload includes a high-accuracy Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) paired with the aircraft’s RTK/PPK module for precise georeferencing.
Operators can expect:

• Centimeter-level absolute accuracy

• Consistent precision across long missions

• Fewer control points needed

• Reliable results in complex mapping environments

The IMU ensures every photo is stamped with exact orientation and position data.

Seamless Workflow with DJI Enterprise Software

The Zenmuse P1 integrates tightly with the DJI enterprise ecosystem:

• DJI Pilot 2 for mission planning and data capture

• DJI Terra for photogrammetry processing, point clouds, and 3D model generation

• FlightHub and cloud workflows for collaborative projects

This creates a streamlined pipeline from flight to final deliverables.

Rugged, Reliable & Mission Ready

The P1 is built to operate in demanding field environments:

• Rapid image acquisition cycles

• Stable gimbal performance in wind

• Durable design for industrial conditions

• Long-term reliability for daily surveying operations

Ready for large-scale commercial flights, emergency response work, or year-round surveying operations.

Applications Across Industries

The Zenmuse P1 is trusted across multiple professional sectors:

• Cadastral surveying & land measurement

• Construction & infrastructure planning

• Highway, railway, and corridor mapping

• Mining volumetric analysis

• Forestry and environmental monitoring

• Emergency mapping and disaster response

• Urban planning and digital twin modeling

Wherever accuracy, clarity, and efficiency matter, the P1 delivers.
