Land Survey Equipment Market: Current Analysis and Forecast (2022-2028)

Land surveying equipments/instruments refer to a variety of tools used for inspection and monitoring, volume calculations, and layout points in industries such as construction, oil and gas extraction, agriculture, and mining. These tools include GNSS, theodolites, laser scanning, UAVs, levels, total stations, and data collectors.

The land survey equipment market is expected to witness a CAGR of around 7% during the forecast period. Owing to the growing number of health clubs, gyms, and other fitness centers. The growing adoption of land survey equipment is mainly attributed to the development and advancement in land surveying equipment technology that makes surveying easy and quicker. Moreover, the benefits of electronic devices in land surveys are also anticipated to drive the market during the forecast period. Furthermore, the growing small-scale mining activities are expected to elevate the market. For instance, according to the international labour organization, small-scale mining activities grew in countries like Africa, Asia, and Latin America by 20% in the last five years.

• Based on solutions, the market is segmented into hardware, software, and services. The hardware segment is expected to grow with a significant share and is expected to maintain this throughout the forecast period. The hardware segment includes hardware such as a theodolite, a total station, 3D scanners, and GPS/GNSS, etc. Furthermore, rising cost-effectiveness and wide accessibility of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in land surveying are driving the growth of the market. As the quality of global positioning systems (GPS) improves and camera resolution increases, unmanned aerial vehicles with improved accuracy and precision are increasingly preferred, driving industry growth. In addition, the versatility of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), offering different viewing angles, image types, altitudes, readings, etc., is a major contributor to the market growth.
• On the basis of industry, the market is segmented into construction, oil & gas, agriculture, mining, disaster management, and others. The oil and gas industry is expected to be the largest shareholder of the land survey equipment market. Accurate information is essential for oil & gas infrastructure development and products, hence land survey instruments are used to analyze and evaluate land to drive market growth.
• For a better understanding of the market adoption of the land survey equipment industry, the market is analyzed based on its worldwide presence in the countries such as North America (U.S., Canada, Rest of North America), Europe (Germany, U.K., France, Spain, Italy, Rest of Europe), Asia-Pacific (China, Japan, India, Rest of Asia-Pacific), Rest of World. APAC is anticipated to grow at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the increasing prevalence of off-road recreational activities backed by growing disposable income and surging per capita spending of individuals in the emerging economies of the region is driving the growth of the market. Furthermore, the growing mining and land surveying activies in the region is expected to significantly influence the market during the forecast period.
