      FAQs about Drones in Energy Report

      How does the Drones in Energy Industry Report differ from other reports?

      Unlike many other reports by Droneii, this one takes a deep and comprehensive view into the largest industry vertical in the global drone market. While the Drone Market Report analyzes the world’s commercial drone market, and the Drone Application Report looks at unique applications, this report does both. It also includes rankings that can be found in other reports. In other words, this unique report consolidates all of the best available market data for drones in the energy industry and its sub-segments.

      What is a drone application?

      Drone applications are innovative ways in which drones are used to make business processes safer, more efficient and/or more profitable. By applying a drone in a unique way to solve a problem, the drone industry has grown exponentially and continues to expand into new industries. The energy industry includes some of the most widespread and profitable drone applications on the market.

      What is the difference between an application example and a case study?

      Application examples are generic combinations of a method (e.g. spraying or mapping) along with an industry (e.g. agriculture). Case studies are concrete examples of how a specific company used a drone for a particular task.

      Are the case studies focused in any particular region?

      Cases are taken from all around the globe including Brazil, Germany, Mexico, Malaysia, Trinidad and Tobago, Norway, Iceland, India, and dozens more.

      What is included in each case study?

      Each case study in the Drone Application Report includes date, location, operational characteristics (type of drone, autonomy level, payload, distance, flight time, etc), value-added metrics, as well as detailed problem and solution descriptions (in paragraph form) and further observations (as bullet points).
