Oulu-based project intro­duced at the Euro­pean Net­work of U‑space Demon­stra­tors webi­nar

Three ded­i­cat­ed drone cor­ri­dors in the Oulu region­al in north­ern Fin­land are test­ing a dig­i­tal infra­struc­ture with the aim of enabling auto­mat­ed, secure, secure drone sys­tems, prod­ucts and ser­vices to sup­port future appli­ca­tions.

The first cor­ri­dor sup­ports dai­ly drone deliv­ery of med­ical prod­ucts between Hailu­o­to Island Health Cen­tre and Oulu Uni­ver­si­ty Hos­pi­tal in part­ly con­trolled & uncon­trolled air­space, offer­ing an alter­na­tive to the longer, weath­er-sus­cep­ti­ble fer­ry con­nec­tion.

A sec­ond demon­stra­tion deliv­ers goods and mail between Oulu city cen­tre and Oulu Air­port in con­trolled air­space; while a third demon­stra­tion con­ducts drone deliv­er­ies over short dis­tances in uncon­trolled air­space with­in Idea­park retail park.
