Call for Speakers and Workshops!
We are accepting abstracts for the technical program
now. Presentations within the technical program are to
be focused on educational aspects of UAS technology and
implementation (minimizing product marketing). The
program this year will expand the focus on applications of
UAS technology as well as innovations in UAS hardware
and software. Sign up on the Pre-Registration Link and
indicate your interest in presenting, exhibiting, sponsoring,
or providing a workshop.
