High Lander to Provide Drone Fleet Management Services in Latin America via UAV Latam

UAV Latam, one of Latin America’s biggest drone oper­a­tions com­pa­nies with sub­sidiaries in nine coun­tries across the con­ti­nent, has announced that it will be using High Lander’s Ori­on drone fleet man­age­ment soft­ware across its entire fleet.

The part­ner­ship will enhance the capa­bil­i­ties of the drone fleets oper­at­ed by UAV Latam’s sub­sidiaries across their var­i­ous geo­gra­phies and indus­tries of oper­a­tion, while help­ing High Lan­der expand its bur­geon­ing pres­ence in Latin Amer­i­ca.

UAV Latam is a drone oper­a­tions spe­cial­ist with more than ten years of expe­ri­ence exe­cut­ing drone mis­sions in Pana­ma, Peru, Brazil, Chile, Argenti­na, Colom­bia, Mex­i­co, Cos­ta Rica and the Domini­can Repub­lic.

Via its sub­sidiaries, the com­pa­ny pro­vides drone oper­a­tions in sec­tors such as min­ing, agri­cul­ture, pub­lic safe­ty, ener­gy, pri­vate secu­ri­ty and aca­d­e­m­ic research, offer­ing ser­vices such as deliv­er­ies, perime­ter defence, site inspec­tion and analy­sis, crowd mon­i­tor­ing, geospa­tial data col­lec­tion and spill sim­u­la­tions.

UAV Latam works with dif­fer­ent types of drone, includ­ing the DJI Phan­tom 4 RTK, the Wing­traOne GEN II, ALTI’s Transition‑M, the eBee X Sense­fly and Speed­bird Aero’s DLV‑2.

High Lander’s Ori­on drone fleet man­age­ment plat­form soft­ware can pow­er mul­ti­ple, simul­ta­ne­ous mis­sions at any scale, with com­plete flex­i­bil­i­ty in mis­sion cre­ation, real-time fleet over­sight, and a host of built-in safe­ty and util­i­ty fea­tures.

Orion’s BVLOS capa­bil­i­ties will be vital in con­nect­ing remote com­mu­ni­ties, and will also pro­vide a cen­tral dash­board through which it can dis­patch and man­age its mis­sions through­out Latin Amer­i­ca.

UAV Latam CEO Juan Bergelund said: “It is excit­ing to find a plat­form that can sat­is­fy our needs through one sin­gle dash­board. We feel that this part­ner­ship will bring long-last­ing ben­e­fits to both of our com­pa­nies.”

High Lan­der began oper­at­ing in Brazil ear­li­er this year from its São Paulo-based sub­sidiary Ôguen, and pro­vides UTM ser­vices to Speed­bird Aero, a drone deliv­ery com­pa­ny oper­at­ing in sev­en cities across Brazil.

High Lan­der CTO Ido Yahalo­mi added: “UAV Latam is a giant in the Latin Amer­i­can drone ecosys­tem, and we are proud to pro­vide the oper­at­ing sys­tem to its drone fleets through­out the con­ti­nent. We are in the process of expand­ing our oper­a­tions through­out Latin Amer­i­ca and we look for­ward to a mutu­al­ly ben­e­fi­cial and long-term rela­tion­ship with UAV Latam.”

In June, AIR, a provider of eVTOLs for per­son­al pilot­ing, announced that its aer­i­al vehi­cles will fly under the air­space cov­er­age of High Lan­der, a provider of drone man­age­ment and uncrewed traf­fic man­age­ment soft­ware.
