CONSTRUCTION DRONE MARKET ANALYSIS

Key Takeaways from Analyst

Drones are increasingly being adopted for capturing aerial photography, 3D modelling, and thermal imaging applications in the construction sector. Their usage is resulting in improved project monitoring, quality control checks, and safety inspections. The ability of drones to survey large project sites in a short span and capture data which can be analyzed later can boost their adoption. However, lack of regulations for drone usage particularly in developed markets can hamper the market growth. Strict rules for flying drones and privacy concerns in countries like the U.S., UK and Germany pose challenges. High costs of drones and expertise required for their operations can also restrict smaller construction firms from adopting the technology.
