A drone is mainly used in the construction industry for surveying and inspection purposes. Drones are equipped with downward-facing sensors, such as RGB, multispectral, thermal or LIDAR, and they can capture a great deal of aerial data in a short time.

Companies building and managing large infrastructure such as roads, railways, bridges, dams, water reservoirs, airports, industrial complexes, oil and gas operations, and power complexes have considerable potential to use drone data to optimize their operations
