Description

This RFI is associated with the Drone Pathfinder Catalyst programme, led by CPC in collaboration with the Department for Transport (DfT), Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), and the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy (BEIS).

This programme is focussed on solutions that will generate a safe operating environment, reduce the barriers to entry, and ultimately, facilitate increasing adoption and use of Unmanned Aerial Systems (drones) across the UK for economic, social, and environmental benefit.

There is a wide consensus that drone technology and services will be impactful, disrupting many industrial sectors. We are seeking to deliver a series of demonstrations to showcase capabilities with current and emerging drone technologies and solutions. The objective is that the demonstrations will result in adoption by the industry segments to realise the potential benefits.
