FlyOhio, an initiative of the Ohio UAS Center and stakeholders including JobsOhio, Dayton Development Coalition, Ohio Federal Research Network, and the City of Springfield, seeks to address this gap by coordinating ongoing UAS research throughout Ohio, while identifying and pursuing future research opportunities, to make Ohio airspace among the first in the nation ready to fly beyond line of sight. The UAS Center will work with public, private and research partners on the technology needed to allow numerous drones, operated remotely, to fly safely over longer distances without fear they will collide with other aircraft, ground-based objects or pose a threat to humans.
