DroneTalks | Scaling #BVLOS drone operations: How uAvionix is powering the next era of connected #airspace | Aerial Cities 2025

“Assuming that if you have one business, you deploy your infrastructure, and if I have another one in the same city, I deploy mine, that is untenable. Scaling fast requires shared infrastructure.”

At Aerial Cities 2025 in Dublin, Thomas Jimenez (VP of UAS at uAvionix) spoke with Richard Boden (Acting COO at Murzilli Consulting) about the reality of commercializing the #drone industry. The consensus? We need a "one connected picture" to move past experimental waivers.

Key takeaways from the #interview:

• The shift toward Part 108 and the #ADSP (Automated Data Service Provider) framework is the only viable path to #scalable BVLOS drone #oparations.

• High-integrity data shouldn't be a solo investment. By partnering with utilities and #airports to host FlightStation sensors, uAvionix provides a "Data Stack" that lets operators focus on missions, not #hardware deployment.

• The same tech currently powering the FAA’s Surface Awareness Initiative (SAI) is being repurposed to give #UAS operators low-latency, aviation-grade situational awareness.

Scaling the airspace isn't about flying more drones; it’s about the infrastructure that connects them.
