DroneDeploy was founded on the basis of lasting change, with our Founders’ original aim to help park rangers in South Africa fight illegal rhino poaching with drone data. Since then, our social impact work has expanded to over 63 countries, with a total of 9,000 maps processed. We’re proud that this report not only acknowledges but celebrates our philanthropic partners, volunteers, and DroneDeploy.org initiatives. It’s our goal to ensure that DroneDeploy has a lasting, positive impact on the communities we live in, the people we serve, and the greater world.
Over the past year, we’ve expanded our impact through meaningful and reciprocal partnerships in the robotics industry, charitable community, and beyond. Our work is to enable these leaders to make impactful, lasting change in our world.”
DroneDeploy is proud to be on a continual journey of learning to create social impact – this is only the beginning! Over the next year, we aim to expand and deepen our partnerships to help mission-driven organizations turn insight into action, as the first drone industry leader with a social impact program.
