# Best Drone Analytics Software - Page 9

   Drone analytics software enables businesses to consume, view, and analyze aerial data collected by drones. These solutions provide 2D and 3D visualizations of the sites recorded by a drone, including slope maps and digital surface models. These products can also measure distances and determine the length and area, as well as the volume, of a stockpile.

Drone analytics tools are primarily used by data analysts who can pull insights from the aerial data. The analytics pulled from these solutions are often leveraged by construction and mining businesses to estimate the quantity of raw materials and stockpiles in their inventory to provide accurate inventory analysis much faster than traditional processes. Additionally, users in these industries can help ensure safety and minimize risk by confirming that machinery is up to compliance codes. Insurance and property management companies may use enterprise drone analytics software for quick inspections, particularly when it comes analyzing the images of roofs and areas that are difficult to examine.

Some drone analytics solutions may provide the ability to analyze farms and crops; however, if a drone analytics software is specifically built to handle this type of analysis, it is considered an agriculture drone software. Some enterprise drone analytics products may be used in conjunction with other analytics tools, such as [business intelligence platforms](https://www.g2.com/categories/business-intelligence-platforms), to deliver additional insight.

To qualify for inclusion in the Drone Analytics category, a product must:

- Record and process all aerial data from drone flights for commercial use
- Create 2D and 3D visual representations of the sites examined by drones
- Allow users to view, model, and analyze the visual representation for actionable business outcomes
- Provide solutions across a variety of industries, instead of a single use case
- Offer a standalone analysis software, instead of sourcing data into a standard business intelligence platform
