Ensuring Safe UAS Operations
Drones operating in restricted zones or exceeding their permitted range can pose potential hazards to nearby aircraft, individuals, or property. To address these concerns, a standalone geo-restriction system for drones (Geocaging) is implemented, isolating the system from other devices on the UAS. This approach incorporates supplementary positioning sources for applications demanding higher levels of integrity and availability than what standard GPS can offer.
Thales has created the Geocaging add-on to reduce both ground and air risk classes (as per Specific Operation Risk Assessment (SORA)), adhering to top-tier aeronautical standards. This add-on not only minimizes legal risks for operators in the event of an incident but also streamlines approval from National Aviation Authorities (NAA). It ensures secure UAS operations and adherence to operational constraints. todo

To install the Geocaging add-on on your drone, simply connect it to the power supply and the Flight Termination System (FTS). Effortlessly create the cage for your operation using dedicated software such as Google Earth Pro or ScaleFlyt. Upload the cage to the add-on using our mobile app, along with the included RF transmitter connected to your smartphone or tablet. Enjoy flying your drone with the confidence that it will remain within the designated cage. If the drone approaches the cage limit, the add-on sends alerts to the mobile app to keep you informed.
