The list of exhibiting companies is impressive alone--Note the US Forest Service is one of them. Many, if not most, other countries are way ahead in incorporating the use of drones into their economies. Eventually we'll catch-up--unless special interests delay this innovation because they feel threatened in some manner.

The impressive list of exhibiting companies, as well as strong early attendee registration, demonstrates the confidence the industry has in SPAR Point Group, organizer of Commercial UAV Expo. “We have expertise in the geospatial market, know the players, and understand the challenges potential users are facing,” said Lisa Murray, Director of Commercial UAV Expo. “We’ve proven we’re able to deliver end-users, and that’s one of the reasons we've had such success attracting these top vendors.”
SPAR Point Group has over 15 years of experience producing world-renowned events and media in the geospatial arena, including SPAR International, the International LiDAR Mapping Forum and www.SPARPointGroup.com. Capturing Reality Forum (formerly European LiDAR Mapping Forum and SPAR Europe) and GeoBusiness Show are produced by the UK office of SPAR Point Group’s parent company, Diversified Communications.
The Commercial UAV Expo conference program will feature presentations from UAV industry experts, who will share key insights into the issues end-users face when implementing UAS, including systems selection and integration; developing enterprise workflows, guidelines and policies; data management and integration; and legal, safety and regulatory considerations. Plenary sessions and panels cover topics of interest to all end-users regardless of industry, while breakout sessions focus on UAV technology, applications and opportunities in the various vertical markets. “Commercial UAV Expo will provide the answers, technology and connections end-users need,” said Ms. Murray. “Our focus on the needs of the end-user in specific growth markets for UAVs differentiates us from other events in the space.”
