SORA / Part 108: Weather-based BVLOS Flight Planning

Press Release

Interview with DroneTalks on BVLOS Flight Planning and SORA / Part 108

Unisphere recently took part in an interview with DroneTalks, discussing how simulation-based technologies support the planning, approval, and scaling of BVLOS drone operations.

In the interview, CCO & Co-Founder Dr. Christoph Selig explains how 4D simulations evaluate weather conditions along complete flight routes and calculate mission-specific battery and energy requirements. These analyses are critical for reliable go/no-go decisions and for the automation of BVLOS flight operations.

A key focus is regulatory application. Simulation enables structured, traceable evidence for weather checks against limits and battery calculations in SORA and FAA Part 108. This allows risks to be assessed consistently and approval processes to be prepared more efficiently.
