What exactly is a "drone"?

A drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle (commonly abbreviated as “UAV”), which is an aircraft without any human pilot, crew or passengers on board.

Commercial or Enterprise drones are more commonly being used by businesses in key sectors like construction, engineering, public safety, agriculture and many more. By using drone technology, businesses can gain an edge by allowing them to survey, inspect and analyse buildings, structures, environments and situations from an aerial perspective with ease.

The use of drones for commercial purposes can produce huge efficiency, accuracy and safety gains, as well as delivering significant cost-savings over both short and long-term periods. Common applications for commercial drones include aerial photography, surveying, inspections, precision agriculture, urban planning and development, environmental monitoring, agricultural management and more.

Driving Efficiency, Safety, Data Quality and Cost-Savings

Around the world, many sectors have a requirement to inspect, survey and photograph or video structures, landscapes or situations from the air. Working at height is complex, risky and expensive, yet many industries are looking for ways to make more informed decisions while saving money and enhancing safety.

Individuals, professionals and organisations around the world are turning do DJI’s cutting-edge drone technology to capture stunning and information-rich aerial insight. Leveraging DJI’s market-leading technology, you can survey, inspect and analyse buildings, structures, environments and situations from an aerial perspective with ease, and capture incredible aerial photos and videos from the safety of the ground.

Drive Efficiency

DJI innovations can bring huge efficiency gains to a range of professional and commercial applications. Compared with traditional methods, many photo, video, survey and inspection jobs can be delivered in significantly less time and often with significantly better results.

Next-Level Surveys

DJI’s geospatial solutions offer highly precise digital outputs for managers, surveyors, and engineers, enhancing operations throughout a project. By collecting aerial data, drones can improve decision-making, reduce costs, improve safety, and drive efficiency.

Enhanced Safety

There are so many risks associated with working at height – not only can it be incredibly expensive, but human lives can be put at serious risk. DJI drones make previously inaccessible areas accessible and previously unachievable aerial shots achievable – all from the safety of the ground.

Cost-Savings

Even though drones can be a significant investment, they can unlock real-life cost savings in a very short time. Aerial surveys using drones take a fraction of the time compared with traditional methods, saving significant labour hours and equipment costs, making projects far more cost-effective overall.

DJI Drones Deployed in Key Industries

Drones are more commonly being used by businesses in key sectors like construction, engineering, public safety, agriculture and utilities. Why? Because by using drone technology, businesses can gain an edge by allowing them to survey, inspect and analyse buildings, structures, environments and situations from an aerial perspective with ease.

The use of drones for commercial purposes can produce huge efficiency, accuracy and safety gains, as well as delivering significant cost-savings over both short and long-term periods. Common applications for commercial drones include aerial photography, surveying, inspections, precision agriculture, urban planning and development, environmental monitoring, agricultural management and more.
