Résumé
In 2022, Canadian UAVs received the first Canada-wide BVLOS permit for UAV flight. Flying UAVs at such a large scale has uncovered the challenge of handling a rapidly increasing volume of data generated from these operations. This data must be collected from UAV operators, processed to provide actionable intelligence, and delivered to customers promptly. However, the current methods for managing this data are manual and slow, requiring constant intervention and leading to delays in the process. The Firm's solution is to extend the functionality of existing proprietary software to automate parts of that process and make it easier for UAV operators and companies to provide processed data to customers in an efficient and accurate manner.

Description
In 2022, Canadian UAVs received the first Canada-wide BVLOS permit for UAV flight. Flying UAVs at such a large scale has uncovered the challenge of handling a rapidly increasing volume of data generated from these operations. This data must be collected from UAV operators, processed to provide actionable intelligence, and delivered to customers promptly.

Description (French)
En 2022, les drones canadiens ont reçu le premier permis BVLOS à l’échelle du Canada pour le vol de drones. L’utilisation de drones à si grande échelle a mis en lumière le défi que représente le traitement d’un volume rapidement croissant de données générées par ces opérations. Ces données doivent être collectées auprès des opérateurs de drones, traitées pour fournir des renseignements exploitables et livrées rapidement aux clients. Cependant, les méthodes actuelles de gestion de ces données sont manuelles et lentes, nécessitant une intervention constante et entraînant des retards dans le processus. La solution proposée par l’entreprise consiste à étendre les fonctionnalités d’un logiciel propriétaire existant afin d’automatiser certaines parties de ce processus et de permettre aux opérateurs de drones et aux entreprises de fournir plus facilement des données traitées aux clients de manière efficace et précise.
