The controller comprises: a receiver for receiving a deconflicted route from a deconfliction engine, the deconflicted route comprising at least one waypoint; a first communications interface for enabling electrical communication between the controller and a corresponding communications interface on an unmanned vehicle; and a processor. The processor is configured to: receive the current position of the unmanned vehicle; generate a vehicle control signal for instructing the unmanned vehicle to perform a manoeuvre which moves the unmanned vehicle from its current position to the at least one waypoint; and transmit the vehicle control signal to the unmanned vehicle through the first communications interface.
