Drone technology is starting to come of age, and many organisations see the potential for the very latest drone technologies to connect people and places in ways we never thought possible. At the centre of this revolution, Skyports is working with Heron AirBridge, a Singapore-based organisation to develop new drone services that undertake deliveries to ships at anchor in ports around the UK and beyond. The project will create the worlds most advanced, fully commercial ship-to-shore drone delivery service, transforming port and shipping operations.Skyports and Heron AirBridge will use their knowledge, expertise and technical capabilities to enhance the ship-to-shore drone delivery network and introduce new systems that enable drones to fly at night, in highly changeable weather conditions, with vessels that anchor further from the port, deal with secure payloads and operate on vessels that are considered higher risk, such as those carrying oil, gas or other hazardous materials.Whilst the majority of the development, proving, testing and integration work will be undertaken in the UK, once proven, live flights to demonstrate the new technology in action will be undertaken in the Port of Singapore, one of the world's busiest ports. The new service will then be offered to ports and shipping companies on a global scale, supporting the global supply chains on which we all depend and placing the UK at the forefront of ship-to-shore drone delivery service provision, creating inward investment and driving creation of new high-skill, high-tech UK-based jobs in an exciting new market.

无人机技术已经开始成熟，许多组织看到了最新的无人机技术以我们从未想过的方式连接人和地方的潜力。在这场革命的中心，Skyports正在与新加坡的组织Heron AirBridge合作，开发新的无人机服务，为英国及其他地区港口的锚船提供送货服务。该项目将创造世界上最先进的、完全商业化的船到海岸无人机送货服务，改变港口和航运运营。Skyports和Heron AirBridge将利用其知识、专业知识和技术能力，加强船到海岸无人机送货网络，并引入新系统，使无人机能够在夜间飞行，在高度多变的天气条件下，与离港口更远的船只锚，虽然大部分的开发、验证、测试和集成工作将在英国进行，但一旦得到证实，将在世界上最繁忙的港口之一新加坡港进行现场飞行，以展示新技术的实际应用。这项新服务将在全球范围内提供给港口和航运公司，支持我们所依赖的全球供应链，并将英国置于船到海岸无人机交付服务提供的最前沿，创造对内投资，并推动在一个令人兴奋的新市场中创造新的高技能，高科技英国工作岗位。
