Abstract

As drones technology matures, it will be used in more and more applications in multiple fields. This paper focuses on the evaluation of the prospects for the application of drones. The evaluation is based on three criteria: the environment, engineering, and disaster management. Through analysis, this paper shows that drones have unique advantages in these three areas. Given the use of ground-based sensors for air and water quality testing, drones have a great positive effect on environmental management. It can also be used for large-scale engineering project management and disaster tracking with its HD video and numerous high-resolution aerial photos. However, drones need improved regulatory controls to address risks to safety, privacy, and security. Overall, this article describes the status of drone applications, which will become more popular with the enhancement of the regulatory environment.
