Using Simulated Data

Our simulation tools allow you to test your integration during development without needing a physical device.

tip

While the simulator is useful for validating connections and general data exchange, we strongly recommend testing with physical Dronetag devices whenever possible. Simulators replicate device behavior but may not produce the exact same data as real Dronetag Mini devices. For accurate data validation, always use a physical device.

Simulating Flights​

You can only simulate flights for devices registered to your account. If you don't own any physical devices, contact us, and we can provide you with a virtual device.

  1. Open the Dronetag Mocker application at https://mocker.dronetag.app
  2. Log in with your Dronetag account
  3. Click anywhere on the map to create a new simulation
  4. Select one of your devices and configure the simulation

Simulations have a time limit but will continue running even if you close the browser. The simulation will end once the allotted time has expired.

caution

Ensure that the device you select for simulation is not currently online or in-flight.

The following information is not yet applicable to the current version of the cloud platform.

How Simulated Data Works​

Simulated data is flagged within our system as such, which results in a negative authenticity score. This impacts how the data is treated.

Displaying Low-Authenticity Data in the App​

By default, our app only shows data with a high authenticity score. To view simulated (low-authenticity) data, follow these steps:

  1. Open app settings
  2. Go to 'Map Options'
  3. Change 'Minimum Authenticity' to 'All'

Displaying Low-Authenticity Data in API Responses​

In our APIs, data with an authenticity score below 0.0 is excluded by default. To include low-authenticity data in your API responses, you will need to enable this option manually.
