How do you get second party roof measurement, and construction mapping software on the 4pro+? Can you down load it from the screen?

The Pro+ isn't the right drone to use.  It's ability to load 3rd party software is extremely limited.

All you need is a regular P4 pro controller and tablet.
Then you can load and run any of the 3rd party flight apps.

The Pro + is very limited at this time for third party Apps.

The Pro + is very limited at this time for third party Apps so you would need a tablet that you can use an App like Maps made easy or Drone Deploy.

I have a p4 controller, as well as the + controller so I just need to get a pad to use with the p4 controller

Yes that will work. A word of caution. I use the Mini 4 which is the perfect size. Problem is that the Go 4 program has outgrown the A8 Processor in the Mini 4. I keep getting messages that the CPU is full and that will have an effect on the programs performance. That being said, it will most likely be OK with your choice of mapping program such as Drone Deploy or Maps Made Easy.

If that is a P4 pro controller, you're OK.
The regular P4 controller is for a different aircraft

You can use DroneMapper RAPID for free up to 150 images and low resolution processing. It also allows for basic GIS distance/area measurements:

Be aware as Labroides say, you can not control a P4P with a P4 standard controller.
The other way can be done as you  can change the P4P/P4P+ RC to control a P4 standard.

After the latest firmware update on the +RC you should be able to install other apps like Litchi but i am not sure it goes as smooth as it would using the regular P4P RC with a external device.

Thanks for the sound advice on this.

Looks pretty cool.  I will check it out.  I have been using drone deploy.  Can you integrate with ArcGIS?

Hopefully Apple will be releasing a Mini 5 soon with an updated Processor. The Mini physical size is perfect.

Yes, the geotiff files produced are geo-referenced and can be loaded into ArcGIS, Global Mapper or QGIS
Thanks,
