DroneDeploy is a drone mapping, reality capture, and aerial analytics platform for construction, energy, agriculture, and inspection. Its developer platform is a GraphQL API (endpoint https://www.dronedeploy.com/graphql) that lets Enterprise and Developer Partner accounts query and mutate DroneDeploy data - organizations, projects, map plans, exports, annotations/issues, images, and webhooks - using a single strongly typed, Relay-style (cursor-paginated) schema rooted at the `viewer` object. A set of legacy REST APIs (Map Processing / Map Engine as a Service, Plan API, Export API) also remains available, but DroneDeploy recommends the GraphQL API for most integrations.
