Mobile Mapping Market Trends


Growing use of AI is driving the market growth


Market CAGR for mobile mapping is being driven by the rising use of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The navigation systems now utilized internationally are projected to change when augmented reality and mobile mapping technologies are integrated. The increased use of smartphones has given augmented reality technologies new areas of use. Users may examine information about an area in front of their mobile devices thanks to integrating data obtained through mobile mapping systems with augmented reality, letting them access the location specifics, like the street's name and other essential information. Integrating geographical data obtained by mobile devices with this technology is being used to apply mobile augmented reality to navigation systems. Users of mobile AR navigation systems may view virtual worlds on their devices while navigating. These solutions give users more information about the items in their immediate surroundings, such as structures, telephone or electric poles, trees, signs, landmarks, and roadside furniture. Using information obtained from mobile mapping systems, AR also provides details such as measurements, sizes, and properties of the object existing in the users' surroundings.


Additionally, augmented reality solutions may be applied to developing location intelligence, introducing high-resolution maps for autonomous vehicles, and producing live maps that alter themselves in response to changing environmental circumstances. Using mobile-mapped geographical data, augmented reality may also be used to construct exact 3D maps of locations and surroundings. Shortly, it is anticipated that developments in augmented reality and its integration with data produced by mobile mapping systems will change mapping and navigation systems. Mobile mapping technology has undergone a full transformation due to recent advancements in UAV technology and steep price declines for these vehicles.


The primary uses of mobile mapping systems using UAVs are environmental detection and disaster monitoring. UAVs are the best option for data gathering in disaster-affected areas since they provide quick spatial information-collecting capabilities at a far lower cost than manned aerial mapping methods. In urban planning, 3D building modeling, archaeological documentation, pipeline inspection, environmental monitoring, infrastructure inventory and monitoring, landslide hazard assessment, open-pit mining, and indoor mapping, UAV-based modeling offers sizable advantages over conventional mapping techniques. The price of UAV mobile mapping systems has also decreased thanks to technological advancements, including low-cost, high-resolution digital cameras, laser scanners, and navigation systems. Thus, driving the Mobile Mapping market revenue.
