The Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA), which is the equivalent of the USA's FAA, selected Drone Complier as the official app to inform drone pilots where it is safe and legal to fly drones as a hobby and where you need to be certified in order to conduct commercial drone operations. DRONE COMPLIER seamlessly links administrative control and mobile accessibility to ensure everyone involved in the company's drone operations is working from the same playbook. Administrators and risk management professionals get total visibility and ensure compliance with regulations and company policies, while operators get a valuable mission planning, logging and management app they can take anywhere they go. Our solution was selected by the ASSURE consortium of leading US Universities (including Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University) as their official drone program management solution, and has been proven in the field in events like Embry-Riddle's Storm Chasers program, which made national headlines when students and faculty assisted first responders with real-time aerial imagery after tornados devastated Kansas.Customer testimony from Patrick Cape - Social Media and Communications Officer - Australian Civil Aviation Safety Authority "The 'Can I fly there?' app has proven to be immensely popular with the drone community in Australia, with over 20,000 users in the first week after its release. With its easy-to-understand guidance about where you can and cannot fly, 'Can I fly there?' provides every drone operator in Australia, regardless of their aviation knowledge and experience, the ability to make every flight a safe one. The team at Drone Complier have been great to work with in developing the app, going above and beyond to ensure the product was delivered on time and to our specifications.
