The CZI MF30-M4 Flow Meter is a compact aerial water flow measurement payload designed for flood response, hydrological surveys, and routine water management inspections. Compatible with the DJI Matrice 4 Series, it combines surface velocity sensing, water level detection, and professional flow measurement software into a lightweight drone-mounted solution for fast and accurate data collection.
Designed for emergency response teams and water management operations, the MF30-M4 provides real-time flow monitoring and cloud-based data management directly from the drone controller.
Features:
- Compact drone-mounted flow meter
- Dedicated flow measurement software
- Real-time flow velocity and water level monitoring
- Cloud data synchronization
- Adaptive river flow algorithms
- Multiple flow calculation methods
- Lightweight 108g design
- Fast deployment within 2 minutes
Lightweight and Portable for Rapid Deployment
Designed specifically for small drone platforms, the MF30-M4 features a lightweight 108g compact design that allows flexible deployment in flood zones, waterways, and remote inspection areas. A single operator can complete setup in approximately 2 minutes, enabling rapid reconnaissance and timely acquisition of critical hydrological data during emergency situations.
Real-Time Flow Monitoring
The MF30-M4 integrates radar-based level and velocity sensors into a single compact unit. Flow velocity and water level data are displayed in real time on the remote controller with high refresh rates and immediate feedback, helping operators quickly assess changing water conditions during operations.
CZI Pilot All-in-One Flow Measurement Software
Equipped with professional flow monitoring software, CZI Pilot streamlines the entire measurement workflow directly from the drone controller. Operators can manage:
- Real-time flow monitoring
- Flight route planning
- Data collection and processing
- Data export
- Automated flow calculations
Manual Flight Measurement
Operators can manually position the drone over specific measurement points to capture localized flow velocity and water level data. Measurement results are automatically stored in tabular format on the remote controller for easy review and export.
Cloud Data Synchronization
Collected measurement data can synchronize directly to the cloud platform, transforming the MF30-M4 from a field collection tool into a centralized hydrological data management solution. Visualized charts and historical records provide valuable data support for emergency response, infrastructure assessment, and water management decision-making.
Advanced Hydrological Algorithms
Developed in collaboration with universities and hydrology experts, the MF30-M4 incorporates adaptive river flow algorithms designed to improve measurement accuracy across varying water conditions.
