The global aerial imaging market size is calculated at USD 3,492 million in 2024 and is predicted to reach around USD 15,405 million by 2034, expanding at a CAGR of 16% from 2024 to 2034.
The aerial imaging market is driving due to the rising demand for surveillance in the government and defense sectors around the globe. The adoption of aerial imagery services has significantly increased in the past few years owing to their diverse applications such as the development of topographic maps, surveillance, photogrammetric survey and others. The growing adoption of surveillance drones for applications in public, wildlife, animal and critical infrastructure safety and security has increased the demand for aerial imaging.
Aerial photos can effectively be supportive for governments in anticipating, responding to and recovering from the impacts of likely imminent, or current hazard occurrences or conditions. Also, increasing contracts between key players and government agencies drive the aerial imaging market growth. However, the market is facing challenges due to lack of uniformity in regulations for drones, that may hamper the market's growth. The industry and end users have witnessed severe limitations on drone flying in many countries due to the government related regulations.
Although, the increasing demand for resource and energy management, as well as a rise in construction and development activities is anticipated to create lucrative opportunities.
