A Drone Delivery Group White Paper for Public Consultation

Commercialisation of the UK Drone Industry

  • Description

    The purpose of this Paper is to provide the UK Drone Industry’s coordinated guidance (represented by the 300+ strong Drone Delivery Group to the Government’s Air Traffic Management and Unmanned Aircraft Bill.  Despite the very best-intentioned efforts, the overall Government landscape is fractured with different departments sponsoring, or as a minimum working with, different groups and approaches with no clear national strategy to understand and ultimately develop and standardize an evidence-based UK UTM landscape.

    The Drone Delivery Group represents an industry-backed initiative to bridge the gap between Government and industry. The Group was founded with the goal of establishing an open channel of communication between key stakeholders within the drone delivery industry (manufacturers, operators, and investors) and Government, standards bodies and regulatory organizations.

    Thank you for your time, interest and support...

     

  • Aim

    Our aim is to deliver industry backed guidance to the UK Government on the steps required to enable safe and secure rapid commercialization of the UK drone industry.

    In the last few years, the UK Government has worked tirelessly to understand and develop strategies to enable what is widely understood as one of the most exciting emerging industries in modern history.  The drone industry encompasses many elements which, when fully commercialized, will create significant benefits to UK Plc.  While the drone industry spans all environments (surface, underwater, air & space), for the purposes of this paper, the term drone is used purely to represent air drones (UAS).
