AeroGCS Enterprise User Manual
4. Dashboard
Your Central Hub for Real-Time Drone Operations
The AeroGCS Enterprise Dashboard is the command center for your drone operations. It provides a unified, real-time view of flight metrics, drone performance, project plans, pilot statistics, and critical alerts — all designed to help you operate with maximum efficiency and awareness.
4.1 Dashboard Layout
Upon logging in, users are directed to the Dashboard — a well-organised visual overview of current and historical mission data.
The dashboard is composed of the following key sections:
- Dashboard Time Range Filter
- Summary Cards
- Drone Performance Chart
- Weekly Flights Graph
- Recent Flights Table
- Recent Plans Table
- Flight Replay Panel (Fly View)
- Top Bar Icons for notifications, error logs, and profile management
The Dashboard Time Range Filter controls the data displayed across all dashboard components.
The Dashboard Time Range Filter allows the user to view dashboard data for a selected time period.
Location
- The filter is located at the top-right corner of the Dashboard, above the Summary Cards.
Available Options (as displayed in the UI)
The dropdown list may contain the following options:
- All
- Today (for example: 15 Dec 2025 – 15 Dec 2025)
- This Week (for example: 14 Dec 2025 – 20 Dec 2025)
- This Month (for example: 01 Dec 2025 – 31 Dec 2025)
- Date-range entries, such as:
- 17 Dec 2023 – 17 Dec 2024
- 17 Dec 2024 – 17 Dec 2025
- 01 Apr 2025 – 31 Mar 2026
Behavior After Selection
After a time range is selected:
- The Dashboard refreshes automatically.
- All dashboard sections display data limited to the selected time range.
- No manual refresh action is required.
⚠️ Important
The selected time range applies only to the Dashboard view.
It does not change data filters in other modules such as Projects, Drones, Reports, or Settings.
Depending on the active account plan, the data displayed on the Dashboard may be subject to availability limits.
Behavior During Trial or Limited Access
When the platform is accessed under a trial or limited plan:
- Dashboard metrics may display data for a restricted time period.
- Historical flight data beyond the allowed retention period may not appear.
- Live Drone count may remain zero even when drones are registered.
- Certain operational features remain visible but may not provide live or extended data.
These limits affect data visibility only and do not indicate system malfunction.
⚠️ Note
Data availability and feature access automatically update when the account plan is upgraded. No reconfiguration or data migration is required by the user.
