Drone software and hardware capabilities are expanding each year, with significant implications for the restoration and insurance industries.

Commercial adoption of drones is exploding in today’s high-tech, information-on-demand society. According to the Federal Aviation Administration, there were just over one million drones in the U.S. at the end of 2017.

In recent years, the restoration industry has increasingly explored the use of drones, commonly known as unmanned aircraft vehicles (UAV). Hurricanes, wildfires, and other weather-related events have served as a beta test to offer a glimpse into the potential capabilities of drones for use in restoration efforts following emergency situations.

When you think restoration technology, what’s the first thing that comes to mind? Several years ago, it likely was job management software, like DASH. Before that, perhaps it was Xactimate. 

Severe weather often triggers high-volume loss events that create a performance challenge for carriers and contractors. Service timelines deteriorate because repair estimates are delayed for days or weeks while loss data such as damage evaluation, measurements, and photographs are collected.
