Thank you for your reply. I guess I was hoping for a little more technical depth about that file's purpose. I did delete if off the SD card before I read your reply. It deleted without any issue and did not appear to affect video recording when I did a brief test flight afterward. I suspect that the drone's firmware will just create a new file to log data to if it cannot find an existing one. Pardon me for saying so, but I would not think that file is a system file for two reasons 1) it was stored on the external SD card, which would be a poor design choice for a critical system file, since there is no guarantee that an SD card will even be installed in the drone, or that a user won't replace an existing SD card with a new one with more capacity. 2) The file extension of ".gis" is a very specific choice with a specific meaning (Geographical Information Systems) recognized by a wider community outside DJI. A hex dump reveals that the header is "GIS". This file has all of the hallmarks of a data file, not a system file. If I had to guess, it would be that it is indeed a GIS file, but of some proprietary DJI format.I would surmise that it is storing flight tracks or some other form of location data; but I was hoping someone would know - cheers.
i believe it is part of the SDK and not specifically for the DJI go app and you probably correct about what it stands for. probably for use with 3D telemetry based mapping solutions and applications that use the DJI SDK. certain folders and files may get shared |
