When commercial UAVs were first invented, there was no foretelling of the massive impact they would have on all the industries they have: real estate, insurance, surveying, architecture, construction, small shipments and mining to name but a few.

So what does the future of commercial UAVs have in store?

Where Drones Will Have the Biggest Impact

It’s expected that commercial UAVs will grow in three main areas: shipments, surveillance and commercial.

Shipments

Drones are already used to carry small parcels and shipments; Amazon famously announced (pun unintended!) their Prime Air scheme a couple of years ago. It may be out of the ordinary now, but in a few years shipments by drone will be much more common. There are numerous benefits to using drones for shipments, including environmental considerations, efficiency, safety, cost savings and convenience.

Commercial UAVs

Commercial drones are different from conventional drones because they are used for more than leisure. Commercial UAVs must be lighter, airborne for longer and much better equipped than recreational drones. The entire market of UAVs, and businesses that will use them to provide a variety of services, will grow exponentially over the next 5 years.

Surveillance

Governments and security agencies are always looking for ways to improve surveillance. Drones offer great capabilities for security, making patrols and surveillance much faster and safer. Investigating difficult to navigate terrains and hard to reach areas is much easier with a UAV. It’s no surprise then that governments across the world will be making bigger investments in drones and their technology to bolster their surveillance regime in the years to come.
