Over the last few years the P&C insurance industry has demonstrated significant interest in using drones (Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems or RPASs) for both underwriting and claims adjusting. Key barriers to using drones are the aviation regulatory structure and the required level of training and familiarity with the equipment — areas DroneVue Imaging has covered. With more than 25 years experience as an appraiser, our Chief Pilot has a solid background with the P&C sector of the insurance industry.

The insurance industry identifies potential applications of drones in the following areas:

  • Aerial data collection
  • Underwriting
