Luckily we'll keep drone use safe and restricted to governments, immune to the ill intents of big corporations and malicious hackers.

- patrickk 14y agoWall Street already uses satellite data to determine sales for WalMart by seeing how full the car parks are: http://www.cnbc.com/id/38722872/New_Big_Brother_MarketMoving_Satellite_Images http://www.cnbc.com/id/38722872/New_Big_Brother_MarketMoving... The next logical step is for a private drone company with the ability to collect, and analyse this data in near real time and sell it to Wall Street. Maybe even sell the data to WalMart so they can monitor staffing levels, and have the right amount of staff on the tills at all times for maximum throughput. You could also monitor shipping at ports, rail yard delivery volume, trucks at warehouses and so on.
