Understanding BVLOS in Modern Drone Operations Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) enables drones to operate beyond a pilot’s direct visual range, supporting long - distance and autonomous data collection. This capability makes drones suitable for large - scale monitoring and inspection tasks that are not possible with standard visual flights. What BVLOS Means in Drone Operations BVLOS refers to flying a drone where it is no longer visible to the pilot’s naked eye. Unlike VLOS and EVLOS, BVLOS depends on advanced communications, onboard sensors, and automation to ensure safe and controlled flight. How BVLOS Drone Operations Work Instead of visual tracking, BVLOS operations rely on real - time telemetry and sensor data. Operators use digital dashboards to monitor flight status, positioning, and obstacles. Safety is maintained through continuous communication links, detect - and - avoid s ystems, and integrated flight management software. Primary BVLOS Use Cases • Utility and Infrastructure Inspections: Inspecting long linear assets such as pipelines and power lines. • Agriculture and Forestry: Monitoring crops and land across large areas remotely. • Search and Rescue: Locating people in hard - to - reach or dangerous environments. • Environmental Monitoring: Tracking wildlife and monitoring protected or inaccessible areas. Benefits, Challenges, and Regulation BVLOS increases operational efficiency and safety but requires regulatory authorization, advanced systems, and trained personnel to operate legally.
