Webinar: Scaling BVLOS Commercial Drone Operations: Building a National Network to Leverage Existing Communications Infrastructure
October 15 | 3:00 pm – 4:00 pm
As commercial drone services evolve into beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) applications, the need for accessible, reliable, and secure communications infrastructure is critical for the commercial scalability of operations . This webinar explores how existing cellular and fiber networks can be leveraged to support a national framework for BVLOS operations—enabling real-time command and control, situational awareness, and data exchange at a national scale. As air transportation management modernizes with digital asset tracking, 4D strategic deconfliction of flight planning, and real-time reporting conformance, investments into network infrastructure development (airborne) and deployment will support the growing demand for AAM services. In this webinar, Kongsberg Geospatial and Emergent 1:1 Consulting, represented by Kyle Snyder, Director of Business Development and Nancy Chrisman, Founder respectively, will share how proven approaches from aerospace and telecom can be applied to accelerate BVLOS adoption. Drawing on lessons from pilot projects and decades of infrastructure management, the speakers will outline a path toward distributed, interoperable networks that scale with demand.
You can expect to learn more about: Leveraging LTE/5G and fiber assets for BVLOS situational awareness. Building a resilient, secure, and scalable national network for UAS operations. Why investment into infrastructure opens more opportunities. Policy and regulatory considerations for infrastructure-based BVLOS enablement. Real-world examples and lessons learned from regional deployments. Whether you’re a drone operator, regulator, infrastructure provider, or technology developer, you’ll walk away with actionable strategies for scaling BVLOS using assets already in place. Reserve your spot today and join the conversation shaping the future of national drone operations.
