GCS integration
Telemetry, commands, and operator workflows that stay trustworthy across links and software releases.
How we approach GCS integration
Ground control stations are the operator’s window into the system: telemetry health, payload status, and command paths must be trustworthy. We map message sets, latency, and failover between aircraft, relays, and operator displays.
Human factors matter - alert flooding, mode confusion, and geospatial context affect safety. We prototype workflows with real operators early.
Cybersecurity and access control for portable GCS kits are part of the architecture, especially for BVLOS or sensitive sites.
