EVENT OVERVIEw

Thought leaders, industry experts and end-users will gather at

Drone World Expo in the heart of Silicon Valley to present real-

world solutions to your business and environment-provided

challenges. UAS/UAVs provide the capability for businesses to

capture data in a way that will have a tremendous impact and

supply actionable information.

Applications from imaging, photography, videography, precision

agriculture, security and public safety, to mapping and

surveying, inspections, research and conservation, resource

extraction, communications, parcel delivery and more will be

explained and demonstrated at this one-of-a-kind gathering.

Attendees will learn about commercial strategies, platforms

and payloads, data collection, piloting, safety, training and

certification, FAA updates and the impact drones are having

on Geographic Information Systems (GIS), Big Data and the

Internet of Things (IoT).

“Drones can be programmed to transport materials, set building components etc. which paves the way to fully/partially

automated construction. These disruptive technologies are going to change the way we build and operate in the future. We are excited to learn from end-users in other commercial markets

and to team up with technology providers and industry leaders to push the envelope in this area.”

— Chidambaram Somu, Virtual Construction Manager, DPR Construction
