UAVs were banned by the FAA in 2007 and they control the national airspace Hobby Exclusion Not for commercial use Government COA Only available to tax funded organizations Section 333 Exemption Only possible option commercial use* *Manufacturers can obtain SAC 7

8 What are the proposed rules? (highlights) Operational Aircraft less than 55lbs. Under 500 AGL (above ground level) Max. speed 100 mph Must maintain visual contact May not operate within 500 of nonparticipants (structures, people) Operator Operator certification (no pilot needed) What are the typical 333 restrictions? (highlights) Operational Under 400 AGL (above ground level) Aircraft <55 lbs, speeds <100 mph Must maintain visual contact May not operate near people (500 ) May not fly over built-up areas *** this isn t showing up any longer Must have COA (either blanket or site specific) Operator Private, Commercial, Recreational, or Sport Pilot s License Required Civil COAs (highlights Blanket COA Flights under 200 Not within 5 NM of towered airport, 2-3NM of non-towered Not over major cities Must file Notice to Airmen (NoTAM) hrs before flight Specific COA Takes days to process Typically will limit to <400 AGL, closer to airports with airport approval Must file NoTAM hrs before flight 8

9 Why would someone want to go through the hassle of a 333? Offer a service very few can legally provide Many companies require this for UAV data Efficiency gains are tremendous on site development Develop internal knowledge prior to the implementation of official rules It is likely to only take a couple months for the initial exemption, then each site should be a quick approval Why would someone want to go through the hassle of a 333? Consequences for not Liability Fines ($10k/day) Potential disbarment from government funded projects FAA proposes $1.8M fine to SkyCap Ground Collected Images Utilizing cameras May require ground control Creates point clouds or uses office input to collect individual points Moves field processes to office (heavy automation) 9
