DroneUp completes first "smart city" drone delivery in Ontario, Calif.

VIRGINIA BEACH, Va., - DroneUp announced that they completed the first smart city drone delivery in Ontario, CA, with Brookfield Properties at New Haven. Other firsts for the residents of Ontario and the New Haven masterplan community included robot carts, e-scooters, and smart hubs. These smart city breakthroughs come as New Haven unveils major retail openings at New Haven Marketplace.

The technology advancements result from long-term investment by the City of Ontario and Brookfield Properties, which further define the city as one of the most progressive in the U.S., providing technology that vastly improves everyday life for residents. New Haven is the fastest growing community in California and 5th in the U.S.

DroneUp, along with drone software leader Airspace Link, worked to bring drone delivery from New Haven Marketplace businesses and services directly to residents via drone. Following these test trials, Ontario and New Haven plan to offer the first authorized drone flights in this large California city. These will also be the first flights near a major airport (Ontario International Airport) and the first drone flights with direct city involvement.
