MoU to focus on achieving the highest levels of safety and security in Dubai’s skies
As part of its efforts to enhance Dubai’s status as a global hub for civil aviation and to develop drone delivery operations, Dubai Civil Aviation Authority (DCAA) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with Keeta Drones.
This MoU focuses on the collaboration in drone-based delivery, with a particular focus on achieving the highest levels of safety and security in Dubai’s skies, in alignment with local laws, regulations and international standards.
The MoU was signed by Mohammed Abdullah Lengawi, Director General, DCAA, and Dr. Yinian Mao, Chairman, Keeta Drones. The collaboration encompasses evaluating and approving drone operation zones, focusing on three core areas: assessing infrastructure requirements for designated drone zones, reviewing airspace requirements for these zones, and evaluating safety and security needs for effective and safe drone delivery operations across Dubai.
“This collaboration highlights the DCAA’s dedication to implementing Dubai’s leadership vision by enabling drone-based delivery and offering innovative infrastructure that allows companies to test their solutions within a safe and model environment,” commented HE Lengawi.
“Throughout this process, Keeta Drones will adhere to the required safety standards and work jointly with the DCAA to transform Dubai into one of the most advanced cities for smart transportation,” remarked Dr. Mao.
