January 15, 2020 | AUVSI News

In an effort to extend its drone software platform offering to enterprise customers, global software provider vHive has partnered with DFS Autonomous Systems LLC (DAS) and its subsidiary Consortiq. 

According to vHive, it is the only software platform that allows enterprises to digitize their field assets and operations using autonomous drone hives. Enterprises can use vHive’s software platform to deploy autonomous drone hives to capture and analyze data, allowing them to accomplish a variety of tasks including reclaim lost revenue, generate new revenue streams and cut operational costs. All this can be done while keeping field staff safe on the ground.

“The collaboration between DAS and vHive is a perfect combination of expertise between two market innovators in the growing enterprise drone industry,” vHive CEO Yariv Geller says.

“We are excited to expand our drone hive software by helping enterprise customers who are new to drones, to establish a safe, efficient and compliant drone program. DAS and Consortiq’s expertise are the perfect fit in bringing a comprehensive and scalable solution for our customers globally.”

DAS and Consortiq provide professional services that enable enterprises to launch a drone program internally or externally, and scale up their use of UAS with vHive’s platform. The companies have worked together in response to the growing opportunity and need of enterprise customers for an end-to-end drone service platform, which includes things such as drone program consulting, staff training and automated survey planning.

“As a UAS consultancy and service provider, training employees for safe operations, DAS simplifies the process for enterprises to establish a drone program and integrate drones into their operations.  DAS also augments customers’ drone resources with safe and efficient drone as a service offering for clients around the world,” explains DAS CEO, Marc Krens. 

“vHive has built an enterprise grade solution for the acquisition and analysis of data which DAS customers need and seek. We are excited to partner with vHive to generate valuable business insights for our customers.”
