Solutions for Small UAV Industry

Drones: Here & Now
The Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs, Drones) Market is already here and now, with forecasts indicating it can reach $10.04Bn by 2020, with CAGR of 11.6% (2015-2020). The market is constantly evolving and is in need of solutions, which would allow complex operations, such as beyond visual line-of-sight operations (BVLOS), assets management and situational awareness for both Commercial and Non-Commercial users. To achieve this, the solutions must guarantee that the UAV operations do not create conflicts with other airspace users, violate privacy of others, compromise public safety and security, and allow easy identification and traceability.
Change Brings Opportunity
“We expect drones will have multiple industrial and government applications, building upon the diverse uses they are already being put to <…> UAV regulation is likely to constrain their use. In some markets, regulation is imminent, while in others, drones come under the same rules as apply to remote controlled aircrafts. <…> A likely outcome in many markets is that UAVs will be integrated into current flight control systems. This will likely require an upgrade of current systems to allow for significantly increased capacity…”
