San Diego, CA , June 4, 2015 (Newswire.com) - Civil & Commercial Unmanned Aircraft Systems Symposium June 16-17,
Emerging Opportunities, Needs and Challenges
The markets for civil and commercial unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) or Unmanned Air Vehicles (UAVs) are poised to explode. UAS manufacturers who to date have been feeding the huge defense market are being joined by an ever increasing number of non-defense UAS platform and payload developers who are targeting the potentially enormous markets for civil and commercial capabilities. The application opportunities seem limitless. However, to make this happen, a whole range of regulatory, certification, insurance, safety, and management challenges have to be met.
This outstanding event brings together the thought-leaders and planners who will make civil and commercial UAS a reality. They will provide the latest information on government plans for UAS integration in the National Airspace (NAS). They will examine the most promising high-value applications – in everything from industrial security and perimeter monitoring, to border management, law enforcement, communications, search and rescue, disaster management, surveying, mapping, resource management – and beyond. They will give you a thorough understanding of the current technical capabilities and looming challenges.
What is the way ahead for UAS integration in the NAS?
What is the state of the science in sense and avoid/collision avoidance systems and technologies?
What new capabilities are needed? What’s on the drawing board?
How to perform a financial risk assessment for a UAS project?
What are the numerous & complex insurance issues?
What is the status of state legislation on UAS overflight?
What are the emerging lessons learned from early UAS test sites?
Where are the real opportunities in the commercial market?
What about federal and state government market opportunities?
This outstanding symposium offer the attendees invaluable information on the emerging opportunities in the military, commercial and civil markets as well as closely examine current programs and first hand experiences with UAS.
