Together with CENTUM research & technology, GMV will be providing the Rozas Airport Research Center (CIAR) with a system that can ensure that unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) can be operated continuously and securely

The CIAR is the testing infrastructure created under the Civil UAVs Initiative led by Galicia’s regional government, with the purpose of advancing UAV technologies for civilian use

The Civil UAVs Initiative was developed as a way to address the new challenges arising in relation to use of unmanned vehicles, such as managing responses to urgent healthcare situations and other emergencies, sustainable management of forest and marine resources, prevention and suppression of wildfires, biodiversity observation and monitoring, and developing new forms of mobility 

The aim of this MOU is to enhance Portugal’s Defence Technological and Industrial Base, focusing mainly on the ongoing development of technologies associated with the A-29 Super Tucano and its recently launched A-29N variant

The company will develop a critical system (DAL-A) to manage all the flight commands from the DUO (Designated UAS Operator) to be sent to the UAS

GMV will provide AIRBUS with a reliable safety critical computer to command and control the Eurodrone Unmanned Aerial System (UAS)
