While to the military they are UAVs or Unnamed Aerial Vehicles,
or RPAS, Remotely Piloted Aerial Systems, they are commonly known as drones.
Drones are commonly used in situations where manned flight is considered too
risky or difficult. They provide troops with a constant vigilance. Each
aircraft can stay aloft for up to 17 hours at a time, loitering over an area
and sending back real-time imagery of activities on the ground. While to many
drones conjure the images of military use and war weaponry, these revolutionary
flying devices are being used in many ways today.
Check out the 7 amazing ways drones are being used
1. Farming - With the aerial abilities of drones, farmers are able to see
whether their irrigation system is working well, how the crops are growing, and
if any of the plants or vegetation is dying out. Drones help farmers in taking
critical decisions on time such as when and where to fertilize, plant, or
water. Farming is tough but drones are making it simpler and fruitful for the
farmers.
2. Real estate buying/selling - Aerial photos and
videos which were once reserved for luxury home listings are now being used
increasingly for buying/selling moderately priced places too. Drones are
inexpensive and are being used for enhancing even the most mundane homes. A
drone tour of the house helps highlight the best features that it has and
attracts potential buyers to it.
3. Construction - Drones are capable of building high-rise
structures. The mere idea of drones acting as construction workers sounds very
fascinating. Like a spider, the drone spools cable behind it as it zips between
supports. It is made to weave a structure high above where ordinary building
equipment can easily reach. Since there is no physical connection with the
ground, drones can move construction elements to any location, and fly in and
around existing structures.
4. Reporting - In reporting, it is of the utmost importance to catch the
active live, as it happens. In many places, reporters are already making use of
drones to capture the day’s news.
5. Tracking and preventing endangered species - Tracking endangered
species is not an easy thing but with its aerial capabilities, drones are quite
effective in preventing poaching. Drones are being used to keep track of
endangered species by floating above the treetops and watching the endangered
species.
6. Saving the environment - Many scientists these days are using drones
to test air quality, to check environmental violations, and to test the make-up
of the ozone. In Italy, drones are used for monitoring illegal dumping.
7. Saving human lives - Recent studies have shown that drones can be
used for delivering defibrillators to heart attack victims much faster than
ambulance. Drones can also be used in critical life-saving situations such as
searching for buried avalanche victims.
