DRONE INFRASTRUCTURE INSPECTION GRANTS

Infrastructure inspection represents one of the most mature commercial drone markets. Drones enable safer, faster, and more cost-effective assessments of critical infrastructure including bridges, power transmission lines, wind turbines, pipelines, cell towers, railways, and dams. The U.S. faces a massive infrastructure deficit with the American Society of Civil Engineers repeatedly grading infrastructure condition at C- or D levels. This creates enormous inspection demand. Simultaneously, aging infrastructure requires more frequent monitoring while budget constraints limit traditional inspection approaches.
