The type and number of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is increasing rapidly. However, operational UAVs are a high-demand, low-density asset and access is extremely limited due to higher priority taskings of these systems. Researchers and developers of UAV related systems, operations, and training rarely have access to an operational quality UAV and must resort to building their own systems. The effort required in developing a fully functional UAV system coupled with the logistics of airspace, operator training, and other flight related activities is a major undertaking. The objective of a UAV Collaboration Network (UCN) is to extend the USAFA UAV flight and simulator capability using common Internet Information Technologies to local and remote users to reduce the barriers of engaging in UAV related education, research, and operations. Typical scenarios for use of the UCN include classroom observation and control of both actual and simulated UAVs. Other uses include enabling other researchers or system developers to observe a UAV flight test of their designs from a remote location. Emergency first responders may also be able to log on to a UAV that is being operated on their behalf and observe the video and telemetry being provided. Users of UAV data such as GIS applications can develop their applications by easily accessing actual real-time UAV data being distributed over the UCN. In short, the purpose of the UCN is to increase the accessibility to UAVs to accelerate the development of educational, operational, and training research activity in the UAV systems domain.
