New Airbus Venture Fuses Satellite and Drone Data
The company aggregates data to simplify access to information for the customer.

Airbus has established a new U.S.-based division designed to fuse satellite and drone data into custom-tailored, client-specific packages with easy-to-use interpretation tools. “Airbus Aerial” set up shop earlier this year in Atlanta. The new venture is led by Jesse Kallman, a UAS industry expert with 12 years of experience at Georgia Tech, federal policy at FAA, commercial UAS at Airware and advocacy with groups such as AUVSI (Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International).
