ABOUT CONTENT
TABLE OF CONTENT
LIST OF FIGURES

DRONEII‘s annual Drone Regulation Report provides the most comprehensive overview and analysis of global drone regulations as well as their impact on the drone industry.

Our Drone Readiness Index (DRI) is a proprietary analytical framework for comparing national drone regulations which was built based on years of experience in the commercial drone industry and an intimate understanding of the regulatory environment.

The Drone Regulation Report introduces the bureaucratic infrastructure behind drone regulations, first in Chapter 1 outlining how drone regulations are made what sorts of challenges drone regulators face. Chapter 2 delves deeper into European and international drone regulations by explaining how EASA and other EU regulatory bodies work in conjunction with national regulations for basic and advanced drone operations.

Our Commercial Drone Regulation Report also provides country profiles for 23 of the most influential drone markets around the world. The flagship component of the report is the Drone Readiness Index (DRI), outlined in Chapter 3, which ranks countries according to the six key indicators: applicability, operational scope, human resources, administrative infrastructure, social acceptance and airspace integration.

Finally, Chapters 4, 5 and 6 of the Drone Regulation Report provide readers with an overview of emerging drone regulation including AAM, UTM systems and drone certification. This is followed by an analysis of drone regulation outlook, challenges and trends, which provide insights on the key factors affecting regulation as well as its converse: the key factors that regulations themselves affect. Included is also at timeline of upcoming commercial drone regulations.

Ultimately, this 90-page Drone Regulation Report helps companies make strategic business development decisions based on regulatory developments and forecasts. This can provide guidance into, for example, market entry or product expansion and whether it is the right time to engage in these. Droneii’s Commercial Drone Regulation Report is a also great tool for current and potential investors in the drone industry.

FAQ ABOUT The Drone Regulation Report 2023

What is unique about the Drone Regulation Report?

Unlike other reports, our Drone Regulation Report provides an in-depth view into the regulatory mechanisms that affect drone operations at a national and international level. The qualitative focus of this report complements the quantitative approach of others in order to provide business developers and investors with insights into legal matters that affect drone operation.

In short: in order to strategically leverage drone technology, companies must understand how the regulations described in this report allow or limit operations of all types including: BVLOS, over people, at night, etc.

How does the Drone Readiness Index (DRI) work?

The Drone Readiness Index is a key component of the Drone Regulation Report since it provides a quantitative analysis of qualitative drone regulations. Regulations are analyzed based on six key metrics: applicability, human resources, administrative infrastructure, operational limits, airspace integration and social acceptance.

Each of these metrics is then given a scale, which is used to measure a country’s regulatory landscape. The scores are subsequently aggregated in order to provide an index and a ranking that indicates a country’s readiness to engage in several types of drone operation.
