Middle East & Africa 3D Mapping and Modelling Market

The 3D mapping and modelling market in Middle East & Africa is expected to grow from US$  315.97 million in 2021 to US$  701.35 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 12.3% from 2021 to 2028.

Cloud computing has been driving the transformation of modern workplaces in major industry verticals, including retail, construction, manufacturing, logistics, media, and entertainment, by enhancing security and delivering high scalability and flexibility, thus, accelerating the development of innovative solutions and services for improved end user experience. In addition, cloud-based solutions facilitate easy scalability, low operating costs, high operational flexibility, and fast visibility, as well as provide update to enterprises while reducing costs and operational risks. The continuously evolving cloud architectures and integration of advanced features in cloud solutions are fueling the adoption of these solutions in diverse end-use industries. For instance, Dassault Systemes continues to market SOLIDWORKS xDesign, its flagship cloud solution, while Autodesk's Fusion360 is the fourth most popular 3D CAD system. Siemens also continues to promote their solid cloud CAD tool, Solid Edge. Cloud deployment is also an attractive option for companies due to its various benefits, such as need-basis payment, regular data backup, high security, fast updates, comparatively low capital and operations costs, and instant provisioning features. Moreover, the complex and high installation & maintenance costs associated with on-premise solutions is driving companies to adopt cloud-based solutions. Thus, scalability, easy deployment, operational flexibility, a high level of security, and affordability are among the key factors expected to propel the uptake of cloud-based 3D mapping and modelling solutions among enterprises in the coming years.

With new features and technologies, vendors can attract new customers and expand their footprints in emerging markets. This factor is likely to drive the Middle East & Africa 3D mapping and modelling market at a substantial CAGR during the forecast period.
