The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is growing rapidly across manycivil application domains including real-time monitoring, providing wirelesscoverage, remote sensing, search and rescue, delivery of goods, security andsurveillance, precision agriculture, and civil infrastructure inspection. SmartUAVs are the next big revolution in UAV technology promising to provide newopportunities in different applications, especially in civil infrastructure interms of reduced risks and lower cost. Civil infrastructure is expected todominate the more that $45 Billion market value of UAV usage. In this survey,we present UAV civil applications and their challenges. We also discuss currentresearch trends and provide future insights for potential UAV uses.Furthermore, we present the key challenges for UAV civil applications,including: charging challenges, collision avoidance and swarming challenges,and networking and security related challenges. Based on our review of therecent literature, we discuss open research challenges and draw high-levelinsights on how these challenges might be approached.
