DJI flight zone data and pilot logs
Hello Dev Team,
I have developed a web based CRM for Drone companies. There we can plan tasks, log pilot logfiles, managing out inventory of DJI drones, etc.
I am wondering if there is an API where I can pull a json file (like I can from Airmap.com) to receive the DJI flight-zones, to plan missions ahead and help the pilot to prepare for the upcoming task without using the DJI website, which always means an extra step. Airmap provides us with JSON data from which I can generate KML files to show the zones on google maps. Unfortunately your flight zones and Airdata flight zones are not always the same and it is kind of awkward to line them up. It would be much easier to use just one source.
I also would like to streamline the update of flight logs. Currently the pilot has to log in to Flightlogbook.com, export the flightlogs into a CSV file and then re-import the flightlogs to our system.
I would like to remove the step through Flightlogbook. They must have an API or an interface to sync the logfiles with DJI, since I can link Flightlogbook with DJI to download the logfiles.
If you need further information, please let me know and I provide all needed details.
We are registered with DJI and are a long customer going back to 2016 using DJI drones in our business. Now it is time to automate certain aspects to make the life of our pilots and managers a bit more easy.
I am looking forward to hear from you soon.

Can you first make sure which SDK you decide to use for DJI? What do you mean by advance json file to receive DJI flight area? Is it a no-fly zone? Cloud API does not support obtaining no-fly areas, MSDK supports obtaining no-fly areas, but the files exported by MSDK are not json files, and developers can convert them into json files by themselves. By helping pilots plan ahead, do you mean pilots flying manually? If you want to implement this function, perhaps the situational awareness function of Cloud API can help you achieve it. https://developer.dji.com/doc/cloud-api-tutorial/en/feature-set/pilot-feature-set/pilot-situation-awareness.html The export of flight logs can be realized through the log export function of Cloud API. You can refer to the document to check whether the document export function meets your needs. https://developer.dji.com/doc/cloud-api-tutorial/en/feature-set/pilot-feature-set/pull-pilot-log.html Of course, MSDK also supports these functions.
