UAS Traffic Management System

Drones are a growing industry and a technology that will be used in many areas in the future. The new EU regulations have created a framework that allows for orderly and safe development of this field.
By supporting a large number of projects, Austro Control has already established itself as a reliable enabler in this sector. As the number of drones is increasing, and with it the number of use cases, a safe operation requires a new definition of airspace and a dedicated traffic management system (unmanned traffic management = UTM). The next step at European level is the development of an integrated airspace known under the term "U-Space", in which all aircraft - manned or unmanned - can operate in a coordinated and safe manner.
 
For this challenge of implementing a UAS Traffic Management System, Austro Control is looking for experienced partners for a long-term cooperation, and published a tender for the procurement of a UAS Traffic Management System.
