Sakhalin Region to be first in Russia to open skies for civilian drones

The Sakhalin Region will be the first one in Russia to open its skies for civilian unmanned aerial vehicles with the use of the ERA-GLONASS system.

The agreement on pilot project implementation was signed by Governor of the Sakhalin Region Valery Limarenko and CEO of GLONASS Alexey Raikevich.

Such a solution will be replicated in all Russian regions in line with the Sakhalin Region’s experience.

"Unmanned aviation is developing proactively in the Sakhalin Region. Regional authorities act in particular as a customer for its services. Drones are now used in many spheres - fires and unauthorized dumps are being detected and promptly eliminated with their use; they are implemented in healthcare, education, and the fisheries sector," the governor said.
