The second demonstrator of this SC is an analysis of the future drone market. This analysis can be divided into environment level, aviation level and technology level. The environment level consists of an environment and scenario analysis. This process includes the following points:

Problem definition: The task is to identify future areas of use cases, to provide problem resolutions which were not possible without use of drones.

Environment analysis: The task here is to find out under which conditions drone based solutions can be implemented from the technical perspective as well from the financial view.

Consistency analysis: The goal of this analysis is to discuss how the available technologies are used and implemented over a wide rage of different use cases.

Scenario frameworks and storyboards: Based on the above analysis various scenario frameworks will be defined and storyboards described.

Implication analysis: The task here is to analyse how drone operations will affect other business and work areas in industry and economy.

Scenario transfer: Key for the use of drone technology is to ensure a well planned transfer into existing work areas and organisations. The task is to give advice how drone technologies can fit into existing systems.

In the aviation level, the market and the stakeholders are considered in detail. In addition to the market analysis and stakeholder analysis, a concept of operations is created. Finally, the topics requirements & constraints, technology analysis & assessment and market potential & risk analysis are dealt within the technology level.
