The objectives of this session are to explore and learn more about how advanced tools such as drones may be used to aid in bridge inspection, forensic investigations, and other site activities including construction. Inspection drones are transforming traditional manual inspection processes, allowing inspectors to speed up their collection while eliminating slower, manual steps that may put them at risk. Currently, drones have been used for internal inspections, external inspections, roof inspections, and tower inspections.

1. Describe the history and development of drone technology and its uses.
2. Explain the necessary steps for drone licensure.
3. Evaluate how drone technology can be used for infrastructure and bridge inspections.
4. Identify the benefits and limitations of drone technology for use in building, infrastructure, and bridge inspections.
