Iris Automation has launched its new Waiver Resource Center (WRC), which gives UAS operators access to expertise and tools for managing the complex waiver submission process for all beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations.

A combination of software-as-a-service and expert aviation policy consulting that simplifies and accelerates the BVLOS waiver application process from beginning to end, the user-friendly tool provides critical regulatory expertise, reduces the time to submission and optimizes approval outcomes.

Iris Automation notes that its aviation policy specialists have thousands of hours assessing operational risk and establishing compliant BVLOS flight operations. Users can access Iris Automation’s comprehensive library of waiver templates through the new WRC. Depending on their unique BVLOS operations and needs, users can also purchase WRC accounts at varying levels.

“The new Waiver Resource Center is both the crystallization of our Policy team’s expertise and our years of interactions with multiple aviation authorities, to simplify what is otherwise a complex and often confusing process,” says Gabrielle Wain, vice president of Global Policy and Government Affairs at Iris Automation.

“As more companies unlock the potential of drones and look to set their commercial operations apart there is a huge need for on-demand policy experts who can write complex waivers applications for safe BVLOS flight operations.”

The WRC is available to all drone operators in the United States pursuing FAA BVLOS waivers including part 107.31, part 107.33, section 44807 and COA applications. WRC also supports Transport Canada BVLOS Special Flight Operations Certificate (SFOCs), and International CAA BVLOS waivers.
