Why use drones?

Why use drones?

Some of the key reasons to use drones is safety, speed and cost savings and more detailed data.  Often drones replace people working in risky situations, such as from heights or over water.  Being able to capture imagery from the safety of the ground or on land reduces risk to personnel in many situations.  The speed at which high resolution data can be collected is vastly improved when using aircraft over land based vehicles, however the cost of using drones is significantly lower than manned aircraft.  They are becoming an important tool in many industries.  However, the challenge presented by drones and the sensors they hold, is the vast amount of data collected. Experienced professionals are needed to interpret the data and support the development of applications that influence on ground management decisions.
