DENVER - Cyberhawk, an uncrewed aerial system (UAS)-based inspection and survey services and visual data management software company in Denver, is excited to announce that it has been granted a coveted nationwide Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) waiver by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
The BVLOS waiver allows Cyberhawk to conduct longer and more complex missions, reducing operational time and costs. It also enhances safety by decreasing the need for ground personnel in hazardous environments. The expanded coverage means Cyberhawk can inspect critical infrastructure over larger areas, including remote locations. Using advanced drone technology and data analytics, the company aims to offer more comprehensive inspection services to help customers maintain and optimize their assets.
"We are very pleased to receive this nationwide BVLOS waiver from the FAA," said Phil Buchan, Chief Operating Officer of Cyberhawk. "This achievement underscores our commitment to innovation, safety, and excellence in the drone industry. With this authorization, we are poised to deliver our customers even greater value and scalability by providing unparalleled inspection, survey, and data solutions that drive efficiency and enhance safety."
Scott Lashmit, Cyberhawk's U.S. Aviation Manager, added, "With the nationwide BVLOS waiver, we can potentially more than double the amount of surveyed assets collected in a day – saving our customers valuable time and costs. Getting actionable data and images quickly is paramount for our customers to arrive at clear, effective decisions ensuring the integrity and safety of critical infrastructure."
