Affiliated Societies
Association of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems UK (ARPAS-UK)
ARPAS-UK plays an important role in advancing knowledge, research, and professional standards within the UK drone and uncrewed aviation sector. As the leading non-profit trade association for the industry, ARPAS-UK provides a platform that connects academia, industry, regulators, and technology developers to encourage collaboration and innovation.
The Association supports the exchange of research, technical expertise, and best practice across a wide range of disciplines, including UAS aviation, engineering, robotics, artificial intelligence, data analytics, environmental science, and geospatial technologies. Through conferences, webinars, working groups, publications, and partnerships with universities and research institutions, ARPAS-UK helps bridge the gap between academic research and real-world operational applications.
ARPAS-UK also contributes to policy discussions and regulatory development, ensuring that evidence-based research informs the future of uncrewed aviation in the UK. By fostering collaboration between researchers, students, and industry professionals, the organisation helps develop the skills, knowledge, and innovation needed to support the safe and sustainable growth of drone technologies and advanced air mobility systems.
International Conference on Unmanned Aircraft Systems Association (ICUAS)
The ICUAS Association, Inc., is a non-profit organization registered in the State of Colorado, USA. Its mission is to advance knowledge, education, basic and applied research, and development, disseminate information and increase societal awareness in unmanned aviation and its applications.
The Association is active in: Organizing annual conferences, workshops, tutorials, technical meetings, and webinars, related to unmanned aviation and unmanned systems; Offering short-courses, seminars and briefings to scientists, engineers, researches, practitioners and end users, industry and the private sector; Advocating and supporting the need for UAS standards and regulations; and, participating in public meetings to help increase societal awareness in unmanned aviation.
The Association’s vision is to contribute to advancing the frontiers of unmanned aviation, to facilitate full integration of unmanned aviation into the national airspace system, and to educate students, researchers, scientists, engineers, practitioners, end-users, and the general public about the benefits of unmanned aviation to society.
The ICUAS Association organizes the international conference on UAS, an annual technical conference with peer-reviewed papers that is widely supported by the community.
