Kespry Cloud: Mission Templates

The Mission Templates workspace in Kespry Cloud allows you to create a template that you can use in the Kespry app on your iPad. You have the option to upload a KMZ or KML file that contains your capture area boundary or draw your capture area outline. This workspace lets you create, edit, and delete mission templates. Once created, this will appear on your Kespry app and you can enter the rest of your mission parameters. This workspace will display a list of all the mission templates that have been saved. You can sort them by the template name, creator, and date modified.
