About GeoCue Group, Inc.
GeoCue Group was founded in 2003 by a group of engineers with extensive experience in developing
hardware and software solutions for primary remote-sensed data acquisition. Our initial products were
aimed at reducing schedule and cost risk in geospatial production workflows by providing
organizational, productivity and data management tools for base geospatial data production. These
tools have been realized as the GeoCue product family. Today GeoCue workflow management tools are
used by a majority of North American geospatial production shops. In 2005, GeoCue began selling and
supporting Terrasolid tools for kinematic LIDAR data production. This was followed in 2009 by our
acquisition of QCoherent Software LLC, the creator of the point cloud exploitation toolset, LP360.
Today GeoCue is the largest supplier of kinematic LIDAR processing tools in North America and LP360
is the world’s most widely used tool for exploiting point cloud data. In 2014, GeoCue Group started a
division focused on using small Unmanned Aerial Systems for high accuracy mapping. Leveraging our
expertise in production, risk reduction, and point cloud processing tools, we are continuing to bring new
services and products to market to provide surveyors and other geomatics professionals exciting tools
for geospatial data extraction using low cost drones including Loki, our plug-and-play PPK direct
positioning system, and now our new True View LIDAR/Imagery fusion sensors. To learn more, visit

About True View® 250
The True View® 250 features dual GeoCue mapping camera with a 120° fused field of view for efficient
and accurate photogrammetric data collection in a 1 kg package. The system is currently compatible
with the DJI M200 v2 and will soon be ready for use with the DJI M300RTK other aircraft may be
integrated in the future, custom integrations can be performed by GeoCue by contacting our sales
department.
A True View Cycle
All True View sensors write their various data streams to a standard file folder structure called a “Cycle.”
The original meaning of cycle was an on/off cycle of the sensor. It is possible to have multiple collections
(flights, in the case of a drone) in a single Cycle, so it is not necessarily correct to think of cycle as being
synonymous with a flight.

True View 2DIS Hardware Integration Kit (DJI M200 v2)
The True View 250 was designed to be used with the GeoCue True View Integration kit, which includes
the Controller Box plate which hold the antenna mast base and the antenna mast. If you purchase a
compatible sUAS from GeoCue the integration kit will be installed by a technician. If you purchase a
compatible sUAS from a third party, you will need to install these components before using your True
View system. The following steps explain how to install your True View integration kit.
Installing the Controller Box Plate
1. To install the controller box plate and the controller box you will need the following
components:
a. Controller Plate (Figure 1)
Figure 1 - Controller Box Plate with Antenna Mast Base
b. Controller Box (Figure 2)
Figure 2 - Controller Box

f. Loctite
g. Masking tape or non-adhesive tape
2. Place the controller box plate on top of the Skyport Assembly. Slots of the bottom will match
the width of metal arms and seat on top. Secure its position with masking tape to help hold the
plate while setting the screws. (Figure 6)

3. Flip the aircraft over and apply more masking tape if necessary, to secure the controller
plate.(Figure 7)

4. Place the bottom mounting brackets over the screw hold on the controller box mounting place.
The center slot and angle will align with the metal arm of Skyport assembly which will let you
know it is placed correctly. (Figure 8)

5. Apply Loctite to a screw and begin by threading the screw socket facing the inside. Be aware
the metal bar will partially obscure the access, this is the reason for the ball end hex driver, so
you can turn the screw at a slight angle. Do not completely torque down the screw yet, leave
some play to help align the outside facing screw. Repeat this on the other side.
6. Apply Loctite to another screw and thread it through the outside facing screw socket threading
for both bottom mounting brackets. Once both screws are threaded on both sides continue to
screw them down while alternately each side, so the bracket secures evenly. Once all screws are
secured down you can apply a very light torque to fully tighten them.
7. Once the controller box plate is secured you can flip the aircraft up and remove the masking
tape. You can now secure the controller box on the controller box plate by pressing the feet
through the grommets. (Figure 9)

True View 2DIS Installation (DJI M200 v2)
Between operations with the True View 250 you may need to install and remove its components
although the controller box plate should be able to stay on a fit in a case. This section will detail all the
components for the True View 250 installation on a DJI M200 v2 the removal will be the reverse
process.
1. The following components are required for True View 250 operations.
a. Dual camera system mounted to gimbal.(Figure 10)
