Analysis of the possibility of using unmanned aerial vehicles in construction industry

Digital technologies show us tremendous added value from the initial conceptual design to the final construction phase. By using these technologies correctly, companies can reduce the cost of the entire construction lifecycle. The project will deal with the current topic of the introduction and use of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) in the construction industry. The project will be focused on the analysis of the possibility of using these vehicles and the analysis of economic benefits within automated construction. UAS are widely used throughout the world, but use in the Czech Republic is not quite common. This project will identify and investigate the types of UAS currently used for construction purposes, as well as the economic aspects of the usability of these machines. Subsequently, the effectiveness of drone utilization in various construction projects will be evaluated.
