Commercial operation of an UAS, as described herein, which are equipped with camera(s) and sensors, would provide professional services in the following areas:

As described fully below, the requested exemption would permit the operation of designated UAS as set forth in this document under controll ed conditions in the NAS that would be a) limited b) controlled c) predetermined and d) sa fe. Approval of this exemption would increase public awareness of UAS operations and enhance safety to aid in fulfilling the Secretary of Transportation’s (the FAA Administrator’s) re sponsibilities to “establish requirements for the safe operation of such aircraft sy stems in the national airspace system.”
