SmartData

SmartData is a hosted drone-data workspace built and operated by National Drones, a CASA ReOC holder and Registered Training Organisation headquartered at Level 34, 1 Eagle Street, Brisbane, Australia. Teams bring processed, viewer-ready outputs from DJI Terra, Agisoft Metashape or their own photogrammetry workflow into SmartData and share one secure browser workspace where clients and asset owners can inspect, measure, compare and sign off on the data instead of passing files around. The platform hosts orthomosaic views, Cesium 3D Tiles, tiled point clouds and Gaussian Splat packages, layers AI-assisted inspection review, measurements, change detection, reporting and role-based team governance over them, and is expanding into processing and analytics workflows for DJI L3 LiDAR, Elios confined-space data, powerline corridor analytics and forestry intelligence. It serves power and utilities, telecommunications, mining and resources, forestry and environment, and infrastructure and construction. SmartData is sold as an end-user SaaS product: it publishes pricing, a public demo sandbox and self-service signup, but no API, developer portal, SDK, webhook surface or machine-readable contract of any kind.

SmartData is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Drone Data, Geospatial, Asset Inspection, Photogrammetry, and LiDAR.

SmartData’s developer surface includes pricing, signup flow, sandbox, support, engineering blog, and 15 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Energy & Utilities regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/smart-data: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you? Prioritized profiling — $2,500 →

  detail: SmartData is National Drones' end-user drone-data workspace and ships no developer surface at all - the 50-URL sitemap
    on www.smart-data.com has no /docs, /api or /developers page, api./docs./developer. subdomains do not resolve on either
    smart-data.com or ndsmartdata.com, and the only machine surface that exists is the Django REST backend the web app itself
    calls at app.ndsmartdata.com/api/v1/, which is undocumented and answers anonymous callers with 403 {"detail":"Authentication
    credentials were not provided."}.

x-provenance-note: '2026-08-14 correction. Until this pass, this profile described a fictional company: "Smart Data", a data
  enrichment / integration / data quality API vendor, with three invented APIs (Smart Data Enrichment API, Smart Data Integration
  API, Smart Data Quality API) each pointing at a Documentation URL under www.smart-data.com/docs/ that has never existed
  and returns 404. The fabricated identity also drove fabricated plans, rate-limit and FinOps artifacts. smart-data.com is
  in fact SmartData, National Drones'' drone-data hosting and inspection platform in Brisbane, Australia. The invented APIs
  and their dead documentation pointers have been removed, the identity and description rebuilt from the provider''s own pages,
  and the plans/rate-limits/ finops artifacts replaced with the provider''s published pricing and an honest zero for rate
  limits. The three blog posts already in blogs/ were correctly harvested from the real company''s former WordPress site and
  are unaffected.'
