The Transport Systems Catapult (TSC) is working with Approved Drone Pilots to help understand the market and issues that affect commercial drones operators,  customers and public perception. Through this survey, the TSC aims to capture the perceived barriers to the full adoption, and subsequently, the capitalisation of drone technology to industries. The survey is targeted at drone operators and businesses who have already adopted, or are looking to adopt the technology. The results of this survey may be used to inform government and industry actions and future policy.

Participation in the survey voluntary. The survey does not require you to provide any personal information and it will not record your IP address. Comments from survey participants will be collated and analysed as part of a group. The TSC will collate the survey results and publish a summary by the end of 2018.
