FAQ ABOUT Global Drone Market Report 2023-2030

What is unique about the drone market report?

The Drone Market Report is our flagship report that provides a holistic and comprehensive view on the state of the global drone market. It is based on years of collecting and updating proprietary data as well as input from primary and secondary sources (white papers, industry contacts, etc).

Why are counter-drone and passenger drones not included?

We consider that these are different technical fields within the drone industry and therefore less fitting for the overall drone market report. However, we do also offer a Counter-drone Market Report as well as an Air Mobility Report.

Why are drone services take up such a huge amount of the market?

In short: a company might produce the hardware/software for a drone, but for each one of these drones that is sold, there is a company using the drone, paying employees to use them internally, and sometimes also charging money for external services. There is a bigger market of companies using drones throughout various industries than the market of companies making them.
