LiDAR Drone Market Scope , Demand, Industry Segments and Forecast by 2027

in lidar •  3 years ago 

The global LiDAR Drone Market size is anticipated to showcase significant growth in the coming years on account of the increasing adoption of advanced sensor technologies into drone LiDAR systems for operational efficiency and reduced human labour requirement. Light detection and ranging technology or LiDAR is a remote sensing technology that utilizes rapid laser pulses for mapping out any surface of the earth. Various businesses adopt this technology for creating elevated models and high-resolution digital surfaces. As per a recent report by Fortune Business Insights, the market is estimated to rise at a CAGR of 20.02% and reach USD 482.67 million by 2027 from a value of USD 136.69 million earned in 2019. The forecast period is set between 2020 and 2027.

Currently, the whole world is fighting the COVID-19 pandemic by staying at homes and maintaining social distancing. This has not only affected the lives of many but also affected various national and international trade relations and transactions worldwide. Most of the markets are struggling to generate revenue, whereas the others are at a temporary halt. However, we hope to soon come out of this situation by complying with the government.

We, at Fortune Business Insights, are offering analytical reports on various markets and how they are coping up with this viral outbreak. These reports will help investors and information seekers to study the current scenario and accordingly chalk out plans to work in favor of the markets in the coming years.

Drivers & Restraints-

Rising Adoption by UAV Sector to Propel Growth

LiDAR technology is used for obtaining geographical information for mapping studies. Owing to this, there has been an increasing demand for this technology from the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) sector, thereby augmenting the global UAV LiDAR market growth. In addition to this, most of the LiDAR systems consist of a multi-sensor method further comprising of three time-synchronized components, namely, a laser scanner unit, Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS). The presence of these technologically advanced lasers and sensor parts help in increasing its operability, thereby aiding to the expansion of the market for UAV LiDAR in the forecast period.

On the contrary, the lack of proper training institutes and skilled technicians to operate UAVs may pose significant challenges to the market in the forecast period. Additionally, various governments are imposing stringent regulations on altitude and night time use of drone radars to avoid aerial accidents. This may cause hindrance to the overall market in the forecast period.

Nevertheless, the development of dynamic sensor technology, namely, the warning systems and crash avoidance, may boost growth. This, coupled with the integration of optical altimeter technology for determining accurate calculations concerning size and weight, are likely to create lucrative growth opportunities for the LiDAR drone market in the coming years.
