High-level workshop on the current state of counter UAS systems

Event - Counter UAS systems - banner

EUROCONTROL is organising a high-level workshop on the state-of-the-art of counter unmanned aerial systems (C-UAS) and similar solutions and measures, looking at their advantages and limitations, and discussing the way forward for the aviation sector. The event will take place on 4 November 2024 at our Brussels Headquarters.

Counter-UAS systems are an essential part of the airspace security landscape, and with the UAS market growing, there is an increasing need to address unauthorised UAS in European airspace.

Participants will have the opportunity to share their views and lessons learned and ask questions during Q&A sessions at the end of each panel. They will also have the chance to visit an exhibition showcasing some of the latest C-UAS solutions on the market.

More specifically, the workshop will explore:

  • the solutions which are currently available to protect airports and operationally sensitive areas against unauthorised unmanned aircraft flights;
  • whether current restrictions at airports are sufficient to deal with the threat and what extra measures might be required;
  • what kind of regulation and rules are needed to define clearer roles and responsibilities;
  • the technology needed to address the whole spectrum of potential threats related to unauthorised drones and UAS.

At the workshop, we aim to:

  • discuss the operational aspects related to UAS detection and mitigation;
  • achieve a common understanding on the taxonomy around the subject matter (e.g. threat vs danger);
  • gain a common understanding of incursion threats and current detection solutions;
  • explore accidents/incidents reporting needs;
  • discuss contingency measures and procedures.

A detailed agenda of the event will be available in due course.

We look forward to welcoming you at this event showcasing the latest developments in C-UAS technology and available solutions, as you look to meet the growing challenges related to unauthorised drone and unmanned aerial vehicles head-on.
