Lidar Drones Market Size
LiDAR Drones Market Size was valued at USD 183.8 Million in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 1000.9 Million by 2034 growing at a CAGR of 20.5%
A LiDAR drone is a specific type of drone equipped with LiDAR sensors. The technology of LiDAR entails measuring distances with a light laser and obtaining precise results; thus, such a drone can create a 3D map while detailing the ground. These drones can operate in various conditions, including Defense & Security sites, underwater areas, and indoors. As a result, it is by far the most adaptable equipment for inspections and surveys. LiDAR drones are unmanned aerial vehicles with built-in Light Detection and Ranging capabilities. These are integrated into drones in such a way that they combine mobility and versatility with the ability to take exact measurements of sensors while obtaining data. They work by emitting laser pulses that contact a surface and then return to the sensor, allowing for precise 3D mapping and data collecting. These are commonly used in land surveying, agriculture, forestry, archeology, and urban planning. LiDAR drones are utilized for various purposes, including rapid and efficient topographic mapping, agricultural health evaluation, and forest canopy density assessment. Other applications include locating archaeological sites and inspecting infrastructure.
