The RPAS CivOps 2019 conference, the 7th annual European Civil RPAS Operators & Operations Forum, took place in Madrid, Spain on 23 & 24 January 2019. Its theme was ‘Harmonizing National Regulatory Approaches’.
At the conclusion of the conference, the delegates agreed that the necessary way forward relative to the implementation of the upcoming EU-wide drone regulation was based on increased coordination and cooperation between the European national drone communities. This opinion was reflected by the «Madrid Declaration of Intent», which was published as the conclusion of the conference.
