Proof Point
Drones increasingly used to expand coverage, reach inaccessible areas, improve resource management and develop innovative offerings
Selected Non-Military Commercial Drone Applications
Proof Point Findings
- Logistics – Delivering goods fast and efficiently, enabling shorter turnaround times and ability to reach previously inaccessible areas
- Events Coverage – Democratizing sports, music, political, and other events coverage, leveraging drone mobility and proliferation of increasingly affordable drone units
- Asset Management – Inspecting infrastructure and other assets remotely, accurately, and safely, eliminating need for high-risk human activities and enabling efficient asset management
- Agriculture – Enabling data-driven farming with sensors and attachable modules, resulting in better situation responses as well as increased quantity and quality of agricultural yields
- Environmental and Ecological Protection – Expanding natural resources and wildlife monitoring, exploiting lower cost of drones, wider coverage, increased mobility, and limited need for human intervention over traditional surveillance
- Engineering and Construction – Improving construction project management, making projects safer and more efficient, driven by real-time data gathering, better resource allocation, and faster responses to issues and challenges
- Transportation – Exploring point-to-point passenger air travel, potentially driving advances in next-generation, autonomous transportation systems
