The satellite imagery and the ground-based photography cannot come anywhere nearby
The video live or recorded has lots of data and metadata which can be used for analysis. Nobody knew in the beginning when IT behemoths started as garage companies, that they fuel their money machines with data. Now it’s known, what data can do for us. It is a tangible asset today. With millions of drones across our skies, the data capture would be humungous and its integration and usage for applications known & unknown today, can change the way we think, live, and conduct our business. The geospatial technology tools are already doing wonders on these footages, tomorrow will be more engaging commercially.
DRONES ARE POSITIONED TO HACK US INTO A BETTER FUTURE.
Drones are holding the world hostage
The journey from Aug the 4th 2018 when Madura was attacked in Venezuela to the attack on the processor and a major oilfield of Saudi Aramco on early Saturday is a journey of years covered in one by criminal players independent of each other. The Houthi rebels of Yemen have used drones since the beginning of Saudi led war years back starting from off-the-shelf models to later versions nearly identical to Iranian models. Teheran denies its supply. Drones flown by them into the radar arrays of Saudi Arabia’s Patriot missile batteries disabled them and ”allowing them to fire ballistic missiles into the kingdom unchallenged.”
UNCONTROLLED DRONES CAN BE OUR NEMESIS.
Suicide drones are likely to similarly revolutionise wars, on account of making sophisticated drone warfare technology widely and cheaply available.
The Kalashnikov drone officially named the KUB-UAV measures four feet in width and can be in air for around thirty minutes at a speed of 80mph. It can take a payload of six pounds of explosives. In operational terms this coffee table sized gadget can be guided to explode on a target 40 miles away. It can thus be compared to a ”small, slow and presumably inexpensive cruise missile.” This democratising of smart bombs will affect the world in a manner we might not be able to visualise today.
KUB-UAV IS A MILESTONE IN WEAPONISING DRONES.
You have to be abreast with the technology to be abreast with the enemy is the mantra of the war in the tech age
If you are not in control of the technology or you are not ready to battle it out, the world henceforth can never be yours. If technology overawes you and you get caught unawares over and over again, then there are certainly very serious issues, with the people, organisations and the systems. You cannot catch up with technology at will. The pace of scientific and technological development and the rules, laws and conventions safeguarding it, will always ensure that you remain a second-grade player, if you are not a part of its development. If somebody else will give you the solution, then the only thing you get is a black box and you will not be able to do any customization or upgradation. You can just be a user of those pre-determined limitations.
THOSE WHO PAINSTAKINGLY DEVELOP AND TEST TECHNOLOGY IN PEACE, DON’T BLEED IN WAR.
