The drones are coming, but rather than hovering over our homes in some big-brother scenario, they?ll be checking farmer?s crops, inspecting power lines, fighting forest fires and delivering medicines and vaccines in rural Africa.

On Tuesday, Airware announced almost $11 million in funding from Andreessen Horowitz and Google Ventures.
