The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) has awarded Thales a contract to deliver a national uncrewed aerial systems (UAS) traffic management (UTM) system.
The UTM system will be based on the TopSky – AstraUTM platform and provide an integrated, ‘one-stop portal’ for the approval and tracking of all UAS operations in Singapore.
TopSky – AstraUTM integrates flight management with digital regulatory services and enables key functions such as operator and drone registration, digital flight planning and authorisation, and real-time monitoring of drone operations.
Thales will deliver the project as part of a consortium with Deeeplabs, a Singapore-based technology provider, which will support deployment and operational services.
