The Global Drone Inspection and Monitoring Market was valued at USD 6.3 Bn in 2020 and is expected to reach USD 25.3 Bn by 2027, with a growing CAGR of 22.0% during the forecast period.
Drone inspection and monitoring is a drone-based solution for tracking, and mapping operations. By the use of this platform, companies can plan and carry out their operations, reveal the drones in actual time, and create reports & evaluations right from their office. The various applications such as stacks, flares, cooling towers, bridges, cell phone towers, wind turbines, aerial land surveys, and inside the furnace of a boiler are inspected and monitored by drones.
Global Drone Inspection and Monitoring Market Dynamics:The growth of the global drone inspection and monitoring market is majorly driven by the factors such as growing demand for safe, accurate inspection & monitoring devices, and an increase in technological advancements in drones. Moreover, the surge in usage of drones as a remote visual inspection tool for critical infrastructure applications propels the demand for drone inspection and monitoring market during the forecast period. However, the lack of skilled professional to operate drones for inspection and monitoring applications act as a major restraint for the market. Besides, advancements in LiDAR technologies for commercial drones is expected to provide a lucrative opportunity for the growth of the drone inspection and monitoring market during the forecast period. For instance, in August 2021, RedTail LiDAR Systems (US), a leader in microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) mirror-based LiDAR technology launched the RTL-450 LiDAR sensor. The RTL-450 incorporates a lightweight MEMS mirror and a precision navigation system to generate accurate data for the most demanding of aerial surveying missions.

COVID-19 Impact on the Drone Inspection and Monitoring Market Analysis
The COVID-19 pandemic impacted various industries such as manufacturing, retail, and others owing to the strict lockdown imposed by the government to curb the spread of the virus. The supply chain of products and services was disrupted owing to the production halt from the different industries. However, the drone inspection and monitoring industry have a positive impact that influences the market growth due to the rising demand for industrial inspection and monitoring drones in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic in a bid to aid social distancing efforts. Moreover, the robots are used to deliver vaccines and simultaneously inspect and monitor COVID-19 prone areas. For instance, in April 2020, Matternet’s M2 drone system delivered clinical prescriptions from a CVS pharmacy to villages in Florida to assist senior citizens. Moreover, the inspection and monitoring drones are used in various end-use industries such as oil & gas, manufacturing, and others due to lack of workforce. Thus, the COVID-19 pandemic positively influenced the growth of the drone inspection and monitoring market.
