Workshop Milestones Schedule
7/13/05: Data from templates compiled into workshop summary7/15/05: Summary posted on web-site8/5/05: DHS future missions incorporated into assessment
- Mission descriptions summarized in assessment- Capability analysis completed, assessment updated
Civil UAV CapabilitiesAssessment
• Task: Develop a Civil UAV Capability Assessment (2015 Time Frame)– Customers: Sub-Orbital Science Program, Vehicle Systems Program– Complement DOD roadmap– Homeland Security, Commercial, Land and Coastal Regions Management,
Earth Science focus areas
• Objectives:– Influence the management of the UAV technology portfolio based on user
defined future needs and missions– Broad civil arena assessment vetted with participating agencies: NASA,
NOAA, DOE, U. S. Forest Service, etc.
• Initial draft version is available via web-site: http://www.nasa.gov/centers/dryden/research/civuav/index.html
• Information sources for initial version: 35 missions– primarily Earth science missions (SSMF, GSFC Earth Science Missions,
NASA/DOE/NOAA workshops and UAV Initiative Advocacy)– 21 basic technologies and capabilities identified to support missions
