As the industry’s leading advocacy organization, this year AUVSI has diligently advocated for appropriations priorities, across all three domains and in the commercial and defense sectors, to advance and scale the uncrewed systems and robotics industries. AUVSI both adopted our own appropriations priorities and advocated for our members’ own appropriations requests.

The Importance Of Layering Sensors For Digital Airspace Visualization
Date/Time: Wednesday, December 6 at 3:00 – 4:00 pm ET
Webinar Description:
Whether for enabling Electronic Observers UAS airspace visualization, or for Counter UAS installations, it’s rare that one sensor is the silver bullet. Thomas Jimenez and David Lewin discuss the strength, tools and complications of layering multiple sensors for a functional complete Common Operating Picture.
Speakers:
Thomas Jimenez, Market Director – UAS, Kongsberg Geospatial
David Lewin, Critical Infrastructure, RSM – East, Echodyne

The Move from VO’s to EO’s in Enabling BVLOS
Date/Time: Wednesday, November 1 at 3:00 – 4:00 pm ET
Webinar Description:
As FAA BVLOS approvals begin to accelerate in the USA, some complex mission CONOPS are pointing to the replacement of Visual Observers with Electronic Observers. Join Thomas from Kongsberg Geospatial and Cyriel from uAvionix in learning what the common operating picture and technology looks like for advanced UAS operators.
Speakers:
Thomas Jimenez, Market Director - UAS, Kongsberg Geospatial

Enabling Complex BVLOS for Unmanned Infrastructure Inspection
Date/Time: Wednesday, August 30 at 3:00 – 4:00 pm ET
Webinar Description:
Infrastructure inspection with UAS offers a safer, more cost-effective alternative to traditional inspection methods, and are no-longer a new concept for many US utilities. The next stage in this segment involves unlocking BVLOS flights for long range inspections, adding to the value proposal. Kongsberg Geospatial and Phoenix Air Unmanned explore how digital airspace visualisation is helping unlock this next stage of complex UAS flight in a safe and scalable way.

Future-Proofing Your Airspace Visualization
Date/Time: Wednesday, March 8 at 3:00 – 4:00 pm ET
Webinar Description:
New sensors, feeds, and data sources are entering a rapidly evolving UAS market at a high pace. The need for future-proof airspace visualization is becoming increasingly important for developing a consistent regulatory CONOPS. KG’s IRIS Terminal, providing ownship visualization fed by Elsight Halo’s constant connectivity, answers the needs of Enterprise UAS clients who will likely evolve their airframes and sensors over the coming decade however can retain key constants in their airspace visualization and aircraft connectivity.

Detecting Non-Cooperative Traffic to Enable BVLOS Operations
Date/Time: Wednesday, November 16th at 3:00 – 4:00 pm EDT
Sensor Fusion Visualized for the Operator in a Complex Multi-sensor World
Date/Time: Wednesday, November 9th at 3:00 – 4:00 pm EDT
Webinar Description:
Kongsberg Geospatial will describe their IRIS Airspace Management and control platform which allows for control of multiple UAS per operator in BVLOS conditions. A key feature of IRIS is the ability to correlate and fuse similar and dissimilar sensor types to present a single fused track to the operator. With Airspace Management and safe vehicle operation involving more and more sensor feeds, this presentation will describe and show a video of the IRIS platform’s ability to integrate and fuse sensor feeds to present a clean uncluttered airspace visualization of fused tracks to the operator.
