As in previous versions of Centrik UAVs are added to the system through the equipment module. Enabling equipment to be used within tasks and to use the mountables option is achieved through the class configuration of equipment. This hasn’t changed however the module is accessed from the left navigation page.
Once accessed the menu options are the same as previous versions however within Centrik 5 the visuals have been enhanced. This is noticeable throughout such as when associated equipment together through the mountables option.
Within the tasking module itself the immediate changes are clear to see, the buttons that were previously in place have been replaced with tabs.
The landing dashboard page provides a dynamic overview of flights and flight minutes alongside any tasks that the user might need to action.
Tasking risk assessments, method checklists and method statements remain unchanged in functionality but have been enhanced significantly providing a more refined look and feel.
For the everyday system user, the tasking area is more clearly defined.
The My tasks area, selectable via a tab has inbuilt search functionality that can be adjusted, headings can be expanded or collapsed if not required.
When starting a new task and in line with other modules the phases run along the right-hand side of the screen, this allows the user to see where they are within each phase.
Once again, the visuals have been improved throughout, this is very noticeable within the equipment selection area of a task.
When it comes to the recording of flights both the web browser and the App version are consistent with the user experience adjustments.
