The geoDVR Mini is an affordable and small rugged HD geospatial digital video recorder (geoDVR) allowing users to easily collect large volumes of continuously geotagged video and GPS meta data.
Weighing in at 1.5kg, this GPS-enabled digital video recorder is suitable for applications where small size, weight, and power (SWaP) requirements are important.
Capabilities and firmware are similar to our popular multi-channel geoDVR Gen2/3, and the geoDVR Mini can also be upgraded with some of the same optional modules and accessories.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
geoDVR Mini
This will really depend on what GPS device you choose to use with the geoDVR. The geoDVR Mini ships with a Garmin 18x receiver and the geoDVR Gen3 features an internal GPS receiver and with that you can probably expect around 3 meter accuracy. The geoDVR Mini can connect to most NMEA-compliant GPS devices so if you have a high-end survey grade GPS unit with differential correction you can use that. In airborne applications, when connected to a compatible gimbal camera with the correct metadata parameters, the geoDVR Mini also can geotag where the camera is looking at the ground with great accuracy to display the “camera target footprint” on the map, or CTF as we call it.
Right now we offer the geoDVR Mini in a single-channel HD (high-definition) version.
