Testing of the state information system has already been agreed

An agreement was concluded in the Kaluga region with JSC «GLONASS». As part of the document, they will begin testing the capabilities of the state information system in the field of unmanned technology. This was reported by the company's press service.

With the help of elements of a hybrid communication network based on «ERA-GLONASS», tracking of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) outside the line of sight will be worked out. The new approach will make it possible to increase the safety of drone flights and open up new routes for their use in the interests of the economy.
