A framework for support of drone applications is established in this standard. Typical drone application classes, application scenarios, and required application execution environments are specified. The general facility requirements of drone applications are listed, including flight platform, flight control system, ground control station, payload, control link and data link, takeoff and landing system, etc. The drone safety and management requirements include airworthiness, airspace and air traffic requirements, qualification of operators, qualification of personnel, insurance, confidentiality, and others. The general operation process is detailed. The operation results stipulate the operation record and operation report, including data classification, data collection and processing, data record and analysis, and data reference format.

IEEE Photogrammetric Technical Standard for Civil Light and Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems for Overhead Transmission Line Engineering
With the popular application of civil light and small unmanned aircraft systems in engineering surveying, UAS photogrammetry is increasingly used for the production of mapping results for overhead transmission line engineering. In order to unify the requirements and confirm that the mapping results meet the engineering surveying requirements of overhead transmission lines. The technical requirements for civil light and small UAS photogrammetry for overhead transmission line engineering, UAS photography, control survey and annotation, aerial data processing and 3D digital mapping is specified in this standard. The key technical indicators of each link of office work and field work in respect of light and small UAS photogrammetry for overhead transmission line engineering, and a unified criteria for UAS application in overhead transmission line engineering are also defined and provided in this standard.
These standards have been replaced with a revised version of the standard, or by a compilation of the original active standard and all its existing amendments, corrigenda, and errata.
No Superseded Standards
These standards have been removed from active status through a ballot where the standard is made inactive as a consensus decision of a balloting group.
No Inactive-Withdrawn Standards
These standards are removed from active status through an administrative process for standards that have not undergone a revision process within 10 years.
No Inactive-Reserved Standards
