“Commercial drones or commercial unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) refer to small aircraft which fly without direct human control and are guided by a remote device. The incidents related to natural disaster and public unrest during recent times have necessitated the use of remote sensing and aerial surveillances. Hence, the UAVs have emerged as a viable alternative in such a scenario. They can capture high definition image and video, in addition to feeding real-time data to the base station in all weather conditions. Their various features such as ease flying over large distances, transport and assembly, smooth and simple operating procedure along with low operation and maintenance cost are driving their usage and subsequent commercialization.
This report is based on an extensive research study of the commercial drones market and aims to analyze the entire market and all its sub-segments through extensively detailed classifications. The demand for commercial drones is likely to witness a significant growth, thereby garnering the interest of the industry players across various verticals. The Americas are projected to be the fastest growing market as FAA relaxes its ban on commercial use of drone in some applications.
