RID2CalTopo

What's available

Field awareness first.
Coordination when you need it.

RID2Caltopo has a clear boundary: the app and DroneScout Bridge do the field work, while r2c-tracker adds incident-wide coordination and managed online services.

IN THE FIELDAPP + BRIDGE

Receive, record, and publish.

A DroneScout Bridge is required for reliable Remote ID reception. The RID2Caltopo app records what it receives and can publish directly to the team's incident map.

  • Reliable ASTM F3411 Remote ID reception through a DroneScout Bridge
  • Android or iOS devices
  • Direct track publishing to incident maps
  • Local controller-video streaming for squinter review
  • Potential-clue capture and on-device anomaly assistance

ACROSS AN INCIDENTR2C-TRACKER

The r2c-tracker service connects multiple field devices, preserves organization-wide records, and supports authenticated Incident Command workflows.

  • FAA, airspace, and protected-land awareness with visible status
  • Multiple RID2Caltopo tablets and DroneScout Bridges in one incident
  • Drone ownership, sighting relay, and duplicate-track suppression
  • Organization-wide flight histories and exports for BVLOS record support
  • Pilot-authorized live video requests from Incident Command
