The potential uses of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) in the construction industry continue to expand as new technologies enter the market and construction companies realize UASes can perform unique tasks at tremendous cost savings. The full technological capabilities of the UAS are, however, limited by law for public safety reasons. UASes share airspace with traditional passenger, military and cargo aircraft, and are potential hazards humans below. The risk of potential catastrophic collisions has led to a careful approach to the adoption of this technology.
