Much air on Mars?
The atmosphere is so tenuous on Mars, that I'm dubious. Maybe they're planning to use it after humans terraform the planet and thicken the air! wink

Earth, not Mars
This technology is better suited for roads than the irregular surface of Mars. In saying that though, Google Earth Streetview is better.

High winds
The high winds on mars would rip it to shreds. A better use would be in factories where there has been hazardous chemical spills, radioactive waste or toxic fumes.
A great area to explore would be in areas with high volcanic ash after the wind dies
