Using Skydio Cloud Media Sync (additional license required) to access your 3D Scan* data offers seamless upload and management of images, videos, and models. 3D Scan media can be stored, searched, and shared across your organization, either from the dashboard or directly from Skydio API integration. The scan menu incorporates the Cloud Model Viewer, a powerful post-flight tool for real-time inspection and decision-making. Browse through photosets, review scan data, and preview a model of your scan in the field to validate coverage and ensure you have the data you need before leaving a scan site. You will need to configure your Skydio Cloud account before using Media Sync. See Getting Started with Skydio Cloud.
