How to Run Missions from Dispatch

Remote pilots can search for and run pre-configured missions for their organization from the Dispatch map in Remote Flight Deck (RFD).

The Missions tab in RFD displays a scrollable list of missions belonging to the pilot’s organization. From the missions tab, pilots can:

• Search for specific missions by name, filter by site (if needed), and sort missions by Name (A→Z), Last edit date, and Last run time.

• Select a mission from the list to preview waypoints/capture boundaries on the map and view mission details.

• Select an available drone and run the mission.

To get started:

1. Go to DFR Command > Remote Flight Deck to open the Dispatch map.

2. Select the Missions tab from the Dispatch sidebar. The list of available missions in the cloud library of the pilots organization appears.
