Description / Abstract:
This document provides a basis for assessing and establishing
operational, safety, performance, and interoperability requirements
for UAS operations in the US National Airspace System (NAS). An
Unmanned Aircraft System is an unmanned aircraft and its associated
components and persons required for operation. The OSED
encompasses:
- All current and planned UAS operations that may occur prior to
2025, except those intended to operate strictly within visual line
of sight
- All UAS types that are in use or in the final stages of
development
- All airspace and operating environments in the current NAS (as
described in the FAA NAS Enterprise Architecture, September 2007)
including airport surface and off-airport operations
- The operational performance and characteristics of UAS based on
known values of existing systems
