Drone-Pictures, a drone aerial photography company based in Marseille, offers you the possibility of producing very high-resolution aerial panoramic photographs, known as aerial giga-panoramas or giga-pixel panoramas!
We are one of the very few French drone operators to be able to offer this new service with multiple interests, and which opens the door not only to Giant Prints of photographic quality but also to technical, biological or ecological applications when the need for detail is crucial, such as the identification and/or counting of plant or animal species, or the detection of disorders on structures such as bridges or dams!
Follow the guide and above all, view and navigate our examples 100% via our GigaPan showcase!

Le GigaPano, ou Panorama gigapixel, est une photographies aériennes de très haute définition couvrant un large angle de vision.
Les images Gigapano ont des détails surprenants, obtenus en combinant plusieurs dizaines de photographies numériques individuelles en un seul panorama.
La réalisation de ces photographies aériennes panoramiques permet donc des agrandissements géants de l’ordre de 4 à 7 mètres de large sur 1 à 2 mètres de haut.
Les images assemblées résultent en un seul fichier pesant entre 200 MegaPixels et 3 GigaPixels (à 300dpi), selon la caméra équipant le drone, et couvre un champ de vision allant de 120 à 360 degrés, selon le modèle choisi à la prise de vue.
Le panorama aérien se compose alors de 20 à 150 photos de 20 Méga-pixels chacune, assemblées ensuite manuellement en un seul giga-pano.
Un GigaPano aérien est une oeuvre photographique géante de très grande qualité pour décorer des espaces intérieurs de prestige tels que sièges sociaux, lobby d’hôtels, Offices de tourisme, Mairies, Préfectures, Musées, …

The GigaPano, or Gigapixel Panorama, is a very high definition aerial photograph covering a wide angle of view.
Gigapano images have amazing detail, obtained by combining several dozen individual digital photographs into a single panorama.
The creation of these panoramic aerial photographs therefore allows for giant enlargements in the order of 4 to 7 metres wide and 1 to 2 metres high.
The assembled images result in a single file weighing between 200 MegaPixels and 3 GigaPixels (at 300dpi), depending on the camera fitted to the drone, and covers a field of vision ranging from 120 to 360 degrees, depending on the model chosen at the time of shooting.
The aerial panorama is then composed of 20 to 150 photos of 20 mega-pixels each, which are then manually assembled into a single giga-pano.
An aerial GigaPano is a giant photographic work of very high quality to decorate prestigious interior spaces such as head offices, hotel lobbies, tourist offices, town halls, prefectures, museums, etc.

Du fait de sa très haute résolution, le GigaPano aérien ouvre de nouvelles perspectives comme :
• Zoomer considérablement dans une image et en extraire le détail qui vous importe, ou organiser un jeu à la façon “Où est Charlie?”
• Un tirage géant de grande qualité photographique grâce à sa définition unique.
• Montrer un site de manière singulière
• Des visites virtuelles avec des images très détaillées, pouvant alors mêler soit d’autres GigaPano, soit des photos 360 (Giga ou Standard), et/ou des vidéos clicables.
En dehors de son indéniable intérêt artistique et décoratif, le GigaPano aérien avec son ultra-haute résolution permet des applications aussi diverses qu’inédites :
• Le comptage et l’identification d’espèces animales ou végétales sur une falaise, un espace difficile d’accès ou marin… Exemple, les ornithologues désireux repérer des nids et la répartition des groupes d’oiseaux sur une falaise.
• Première analyse de structure, d’ouvrages d’art, barrage, digue, etc…: aide à la décision sur une orthophoto mosaïque non-déformée et géoréférencée
• Suivi détaillé dans le temps de l’impact environnemental d’une action humaine (relevé Giga-photographiques régulier depuis le même point GPS)
An aerial GigaPano is a giant photographic work of very high quality to decorate prestigious interior spaces such as head offices, hotel lobbies, tourist offices, town halls, prefectures, museums, etc.
Because of its very high resolution, the aerial GigaPano opens up new perspectives such as :
• Zooming considerably into an image and extracting the detail that matters to you, or organising a game in the style of “Where’s Charlie?”
• A giant print of great photographic quality thanks to its unique definition.
• Show a site in a unique way
• Virtual tours with very detailed images, which can then be mixed with either other GigaPano, 360 photos (Giga or Standard), and/or clickable videos.
Apart from its undeniable artistic and decorative interest, the aerial GigaPano with its ultra-high resolution allows applications as diverse as new:
• The counting and identification of animal or plant species on a cliff, a difficult to access area or a marine area… For example, ornithologists wishing to locate nests and the distribution of groups of birds on a cliff.
• Initial analysis of structures, dams, dykes, etc.: decision support on an undistorted and georeferenced orthophoto mosaic
• Detailed monitoring over time of the environmental impact of a human action (regular Giga-photographic survey from the same GPS point)
The cost of producing an aerial GigaPano is made up of several variable elements:
The drone used: 390€ ex VAT (fixed price)
Travel costs: 0,60€/kms
The cost of filing for site-related permits: NC
The assembly of the panorama in the final format (120°, 180° or 360°): from 290,00 to 490,00 € ex VAT
The rights of exploitation of the photographic work: fixed price 300,00 € ex VAT.
