This article presents a review about Beyond Visual Line Of Sight (BVLOS) operations using
unmanned aircraft in forest environments. Forest environments present unique challenges …

Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS) have an enormous number of possible commercial and
personal uses ranging from the basic delivery of packages to environmental monitoring and …

Abstract Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (SUAS) are an emerging technology that is
suitable for multitude of applications requiring small sensor payloads including airborne …

Maintaining safe separations is essential to achieve reliable operations for unmanned aerial
vehicles (UAV). Given the escalating severity of collision risks associated with UAVs …

One of the major challenges of conducting operations of unmanned aircraft, especially
operations beyond visual line-of-sight (BVLOS), is to make a realistic and sufficiently …

Currently, the use of civil drones at airports is statutorily prohibited in most countries. This is
due to threats to safety associated with the flying of drones over such facilities. The research …

Regulations for remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) should have a strong foundation in,
and traceability to, the management of the safety risks. This paper describes a new …

Safety is a key factor in all aviation, and while years of development has made manned
aviation relatively safe, the same has yet to happen for unmanned aircraft. However, the …

We develop a notion of safety architecture (SA), based on an extension to Bow Tie Diagrams
(BTDs), to characterize the overall scope of the mitigation measures undertaken to provide …

The commercial use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) would be enhanced by an ability
to sense and avoid potential mid-air collision threats. In this letter, we propose a new …
