Visioning the future of Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems in Alberta
Help Alberta lead the RPAS industry in Canada and beyond by connecting Alberta’s RPAS industry and research assets.
Connecting Alberta’s RPAS Assets. Do you manufacture Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) or use RPAS within your business operations? Do you conduct RPAS research or research technologies related to RPAS sub-systems?
We want to hear from you. Let’s connect Alberta’s RPAS Industry and Research assets.
Together RPAS stakeholders and researchers can capitalize on a multi-billion dollar sector with high growth potential. Let’s chart the course of RPAS in Alberta.
By participating in this project, you’ll be helping to create a sustainable and dynamic future for the RPAS industry in Alberta. Your insights, experience and research are helping to create the future of RPAS. By connecting the work taking place across the province, you’ll be helping to shape and define the strategy that will support your work.
Take a moment to connect with us, and one of our RPAS project leads will follow up with you directly.

About the Project
Shaping RPAS in Alberta and beyond
Funded by Alberta Innovates, this project has the potential to be the first in a series of ongoing RPAS projects. You would be directly shaping the future of the industry for the province.
Unlocking Market Potential
Alberta is home to a high number of RPAS companies. We have one of only two RPAS test ranges in Canada with restricted class F airspaces specifically designed by Transport Canada for RPAS testing, research and development—the Foremost UAS Test Range.
Key Focus Sectors
The main deliverable of this project is a pan-Alberta RPAS strategy.
One component of this strategy is an RPAS asset map focusing on four key areas: Civil & Commercial, Defense, Ecosystem Support (airports, BVLOS air spaces, research and innovation organizations), and Education & Research.
Building Awareness of Alberta’s RPAS Industry
We’re also developing a series of awareness assets highlighting the innovation in RPAS. From companies and post-secondary institutions to research and service providers in RPAS, we want to share your stories and highlight your work.
