Tender called for all-in-one unmanned aircraft tracking, registration system
The Straits Times|December 13, 2024
A call is out for a tender to build a system that will allow the authorities to track unmanned aircraft (UA) operations in real time and help them "deconflict" the flights of manned and unmanned aircraft.

The unmanned aircraft traffic management system (UTMS) will also be used as a one-stop portal for UA users to register their aircraft and apply for permits and pilot licences.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) called the tender on Dec 12.

Interested parties with expertise in air traffic management systems, and developing and implementing complex aviation systems, should submit their proposals to CAAS by Jan 31, 2025.

The system, which is expected to be the first of its kind, will track commercial and recreational UA, and provide users with real-time information about other UA within their area of operation, CAAS said.

The UTMS is also expected to enable more effective enforcement against operators who flout the rules, such as those who fly their UA outside an approved area.
