GAO’s Close-Range Drones, typically used for tasks requiring proximity to the operator, are designed for short-distance operations, usually within 5 kilometers (3 miles). These drones are compact, lightweight, and equipped with high-resolution cameras and sensors for detailed data collection. They excel in applications such as building inspections, agricultural monitoring, and search and rescue missions. Their ease of deployment and maneuverability make them ideal for navigating confined or complex environments. Despite their limited range, close-range drones offer significant versatility and are often favored for their ability to deliver precise, real-time information. Their advanced control systems ensure stability and accuracy, making them invaluable tools for professionals needing detailed, close-quarters aerial data. 

The Close-Range Drones may also be called: Proximity drones, Near-field drones, Short-distance drones, Close-proximity UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles), Compact drones, Local-range drones, Short-range UAVs, Close-quarters drones, and Close-range aerial vehicles.
