UAS Weather Resiliency and Predictability in Support of Natural Disasters

Current weather products do not adequately capture cloud heights, visibility, and wind above-ground-level. Building a disciplined weather culture will ensure readiness when BVLOS operations become more routine. This presentation will provide insight into what you should consider in future budget planning and in developing a weather resilient UAS program. Better pre-staged drone assets before a natural disaster will enable more efficient and effective mission accomplishment.
