The global drone inspection and monitoring market is expected to grow at a CAGR of around 12% during the forecast period of 2023-2028 and was valued at around US$ 6.6 billion in 2022.
Drones offer a time and money-saving substitute for conventional inspection and monitoring techniques. Large regions may be evaluated quickly and correctly, eliminating the need for human inspections and conserving time and resources. Human inspectors are no longer required to access hazardous or challenging locations, such as high structures, power lines, or oil rigs. Lowering the possibility of mishaps or injuries during inspections increases safety.
Drones with cameras and sensors cause privacy worries, particularly when used for inspections close to homes or in populous areas. Without permission, acquiring and storing personal information or photographs may result in privacy violations and legal repercussions. For drone inspection and monitoring services to be accepted and trusted, these privacy issues must be addressed, and data protection laws must be followed.
Technological advancements are Driving Global Drone Inspection and Monitoring Market Growth
Longer flight times, higher battery life, better sensors, and artificial intelligence (AI) capabilities are just a few of the ongoing drone technology developments that have helped the global drone inspection and monitoring market expand. Drones now perform better and have more capabilities, making inspection and monitoring chores a better fit for them. Drones are now more affordable, making them more available to companies of all sizes. More businesses have now invested in drone-based inspection and monitoring systems as a result.
