Propeller Aero Rate Limits

Propeller does not publish specific numeric rate limits for the Public API in its public documentation. As a paid, plan-gated REST API, access is scoped by subscription entitlement (Public API is available on higher tiers such as Scale) rather than by a metered per-call quota. Clients should assume standard HTTP throttling protections apply, handle HTTP 429 responses, and honor any Retry-After header. Survey-file download URLs are time-limited.

Propeller Aero Rate Limits is the machine-readable rate-limit profile for Propeller Aero on the APIs.io network, conforming to the API Commons Rate Limits specification.

It captures 2 rate-limit definitions, measuring requests and expiry.

The profile also includes 2 backoff/retry policies defined and response codes documented for throttled.

Tagged areas include Drone Survey, Geospatial, Rate Limiting, Quotas, and Throttling.

Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter and honor Retry-After on HTTP 429 responses.
