Global infrastructure of UAS test sites

The international consortium of Aeronautical Test Sites (ICATS) that was established in 2014. The aim of the company is to support the aviation industry ensuring the development, testing and final UAS certification leading to UAS use in the common airspace.

​

The goal is achieved by:

• exchange of information on operational safety, flight rules and actual experience of UAS operation in the common airspace

• encouraging industry to demonstrate and test subsystem technologies that will create the necessary international standard for future UAS construction

• work with the respective regulatory authorities and continue increasing confidence in UAS

Short product description

Digital and flight UAS test site platform is a distributed software and hardware complex of virtual and flight tests for the purpose of UAS creation and certification.

Digital and flight UAS test site platform reproduces a single physical and virtual environment for the UAV and its mathematical counterpart to function. It allows reducing development time as well as increasing informational value and enhancing flight tests safety.
