The European U-space project U-ELCOME, led in Spain by ENAIRE, concludes showcasing deployment readiness of drone services

The European project U-ELCOME (U-space European COMmon dEpLoyment), focused on deploying services for the safe management of drone traffic using the U-space concept, concludes this week with the presentation of its findings by ENAIRE at the event organised by the SESAR Joint Undertaking: “Supporting the Drone Strategy 2.0: Results from the U-space Digital Demonstrators”, held at EUROCONTROL in Brussels.

During this event, key results from other European projects (BURDI and EALU-AER) were also presented, all aimed at integrating drones into airspace through U-space technologies to enable safe, automated, and coordinated operations in both urban and rural areas. The event shared insights from test campaigns, challenges faced, and lessons learned across different European environments, under the supervision of the SESAR Joint Undertaking — the European public-private partnership driving innovation for the Single European Sky and its strategy for a digital, connected, and sustainable airspace.
