OGDEN, UT — (Marketwired) — 11/04/16 — , a pioneering full-color 3D printing cloud provider, today announced the launch of , full-scale color printed models produced from drone data, available from the drone industry–s first app store, DroneDeploy–s App Market, launched this week.
, the emerging global market for businesses using drones is expected to top $127 billion by 2020. As technologies like geo-fencing and collision avoidance increase regulators– confidence in larger numbers of drones taking to the skies, it is expected that the potential for commercial drones in industry will grow exponentially.
Starting today, customers will be able to send drone imagery of topography and terrain from DroneDeploy to WhiteClouds– servers where technical engineers will produce customized map models, available in different printed materials, for clients in widely varying industries.
“Transmitting drone data and creating customized, physical models of that data gives companies an edge and bridges the gap between digital and physical, driving more communication,” says Braden Ellis, CRO, WhiteClouds, “It has always been part of our mission to help our business partners push the limits and achieve more through 3D Printing.”
Currently the company sees businesses in agriculture, engineering, construction and mining visiting the DroneDeploy App Store and availing themselves of the new technology.
