Drone operational control centre with mission dashboards, fleet status, and live telemetry
OPERATIONAL CONTROL CENTRE

Complete operational oversight and control

Centrally manage and coordinate every drone operation across your network. Our UTM platform gives infrastructure organisations like Network Rail the visibility, control and audit trail they need to fly safely and compliantly at scale."

Stacked oversight

Mission Control for Drone Operations

Programmes scaling toward BVLOS and enterprise drone operations need one operational picture: who is flying, where, under what constraints, and whether execution matches authorised intent. An Operational Control Centre (OCC) is the coordination layer that turns plans, telemetry, airspace services, and governance workflows into decisions teams can act on in real time.

The OCC does not replace regulators or field crews; it connects them. Shared visibility reduces ad-hoc coordination, surfaces deviations earlier, and preserves the evidence chain when operations span sites, suppliers, and seasons. Dronecloud brings flight management, telemetry, UTM, and airspace awareness into that connected model.

End-to-end

Operational Control Workflow

A simple loop your OCC can run every day — supported by connected platform telemetry and governance.

  1. Plan

    Plan missions and operational intent with clear ownership.

  2. Authorise

    Validate, approve, and authorise operations before launch.

  3. Monitor

    Live monitoring of aircraft, airspace, and telemetry together.

  4. Alert

    Detect issues early and trigger the right notifications.

  5. Record

    Capture events and operational data as structured evidence.

  6. Review

    Analyse performance and improve the next operational cycle.

Operating model

From Isolated Flights to Enterprise Control

Scaling is not only about aircraft count — it is about how reliably information moves between teams, systems, and regulators.
