Enhanced Autofly – Smarter, Safer, More Efficient Drone Operations
Unleash live continues to advance AI and Machine Learning (ML) powered drone automation with significant upgrades to Autofly, Unleash live’s industry-leading automated Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) solution. These enhancements ensure greater compliance, safety and efficiency for drone operators across various industries, including energy (utilities & renewables), transport, mining, oil & gas and emergency response.
Regulatory Compliance & Safer Operations
Autofly is now commercially operational above and near people and assets, aligning with the latest Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) and The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations. This update enables organisations to conduct safer and more efficient inspections, even in complex environments where traditional manual drone operations may be restricted.
By integrating real-time geospatial awareness and automated safety checks, pilots can confidently execute missions while adhering to aviation safety standards. This means fewer operational delays and a reduced risk of regulatory issues.
Comprehensive Geospatial Context for Smarter Flights
With enhanced mission planning, jobs and tasks can now include detailed geospatial context, such as:
- Layers - Overlays for infrastructure, environmental hazards or restricted zones
- Points - Key landmarks or inspection targets
- Polygons - Defined areas of interest for targeted data capture
This expanded situational awareness ensures pilots have all critical data at their fingertips, allowing for more precise flight planning, optimised asset inspections and better decision-making in the field.
Advanced Data Read-Outs for Greater Insights
To improve situational awareness and flight efficiency, Autofly now provides expanded read-outs with:
- Enhanced telemetry data – Monitor altitude, speed and drone position with greater accuracy.
- Live environmental conditions – Access real-time wind speed, direction and temperature to support safer flight decisions.
- Mission execution insights – Track performance and ensure all objectives are met effectively.
These data-driven insights empower pilots and teams to reduce errors, minimise flight time and maximise data capture accuracy.
Unlocking New Possibilities Across Industries
With these updates, Autofly is more capable than ever—enabling businesses to scale automated drone operations across multiple industries:
- Renewables – Faster wind turbine and solar farm inspections with geospatial overlays.
- Utilities – Safer powerline and substation assessments near populated areas.
- Transport – Automated monitoring of roads, rail, water and infrastructure.
- Mining & Oil & Gas – High-precision data capture in hazardous environments.
- Emergency Response – Faster situational awareness for disaster relief and public safety.
