Building drone software? Use the same engine.
RangeSight runs on two physics-based engines: RangeIQ+ for leg-by-leg waypoint mission feasibility (the engine behind the flagship Mission Analysis Map) and RangeIQ for fast single-point range analysis. Both ship in the app, and both are available to you as an API: mission feasibility, range, and weather-adjusted estimates for whatever you're building. It's a Noxdren product.
RangeSight is the consumer app. RangeIQ+ and RangeIQ are the API.
RangeIQ+ is our leg-by-leg mission engine, physics-based feasibility checks for every waypoint of an imported route. It's the engine behind RangeSight's flagship Mission Analysis Map (leg-by-leg feasibility, per-waypoint return checks, risk-coloured paths), and it's available via the API too, so if you're writing your own mission planner, a fleet dashboard, a delivery-routing tool or an inspection workflow, you can call it instead of re-deriving the math. The API is built with mTLS, JWT, audit logging and multi-tenant isolation.
RangeIQ is our single-point range engine, it factors wind, temperature, battery state, payload, altitude and return-home reserve into the wind-shaped, return-safe range envelope you see on the map. In the app it runs on your device, no connection needed; the same engine is also available cloud-side via the API.
Hyperlocal weather is available on both surfaces too: both the app and the API can pull personal weather station data from stations near the launch site, so conditions reflect where the drone actually flies rather than a regional forecast alone. If you have a Weather Underground account, you can connect it to access the worldwide PWS network.
An honest note: RangeIQ+ and RangeIQ are physics-based models with a provisional patent filed, and they ship in a real consumer app. We don't claim a validated accuracy percentage; treat the output as decision support, with reserve built in. The same standard applies whether you use the app or the API.
