The reference to the 100,000 figure was from a study by AUVSI, the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International. Although I don't have the study in front of me, I do know it takes a very holistic look at this market and this technology. Understandably, those jobs are in the commercial space. They are as diverse as new jobs within companies using this technology to support their operations or support safety in their industry sector to jobs related to training or education or other realms around drones. There are a variety of industry sectors and professions that can benefit from this technology. They took a look and quantified what that would be across various industry sectors.
I would be happy to submit for the record, Madam Chair, a copy of this study, if it would be helpful and instructive.
There certainly is a job creation potential here over the next several years, again depending on whether we have the right balance and policy framework in place to support it.
