• California will gain more than any other State from UAS *
• ~80% of U.S. applications for UAS are in Precision Agriculture *
• $90B industry in next decade *
• UAS expected to create 100,000 jobs *
• UAS technology mature
• UAS will potentially save $Millions
UAS Commercial Applications … Why would California care?

• Agriculture – geo-surveying, crop spraying, livestock monitoring, wildlife inventory, soil erosion, frost mitigation, determining plant health, crop harvesting
• Utility Companies – downed power lines, water lines, geophysical surveys to predict mineral deposits
• First Responders - Search & Rescue, Firefighting, wildfire mapping• Coastline Tracking - locating oil spills, coastal erosion, migratory
studies, • Construction - facility inspection, maintenance and safety purposes• Aerial surveillance – pipeline security, home security, road patrol, etc.• Weather studies - Hurricane hunters (collect barometric pressure,
temperature, etc real-time)• Reconnaissance - support in natural disasters• Aerial photography and marketing• Transportation – FedEx and UPS
UAS Applications

• So, why???– FAA process for UAS commercial (non-DoD) use is:
• Cumbersome • Time-consuming• Restrictive
• Currently …– 327 active permits in U.S.
• most for law enforcement or universities
Why aren’t we using UAS in the United States?

FAA directed to:1. Establish 6 R&D test sites in the U.S. 2. Develop a plan to accelerate the safe integration of UAS into the national
airspace system
Cal UAS Inyokern is competing with 24 other Applicants across U.S.FAA decision by year-endSite visit anticipated soon

In an effort to harness and enhance California’s innovative spirit, the state of California launched its forward-thinking Innovation Hub (iHub) initiative. The iHub initiative improves the state's national and global competitiveness by stimulating partnerships, economic development, and job creation around specific research clusters through state-designated iHubs. The iHubs leverage assets such as research parks, technology incubators, universities, and federal laboratories to provide an innovation platform for startup companies, economic development organizations, business groups, and venture capitalists.
