The organizers of Commercial UAV Expo have released a new report, titled “Progressive Construction Firms Mobilize to Put UAVs to Work.” Fully available for download here, the free report provides key insights into how UAV technology is being implemented to improve efficiency, production and safety in construction projects.

The report comes as a result of increased demand from the construction industry for more information on implementing drone technology in construction projects. To date, more than 1,000 Section 333 exemptions have been granted by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for operating commercial drones. Many of the exemptions are for construction-related applications such as aerial surveying, construction site inspection and monitoring, aerial photography, and 3D mapping.
