We propose an optical system to enable automatic landings of RPAS. With the current infrastructure, automatic landings of aircraft in general are only possible on airports with certified ILS CAT III installations, since GBAS CAT III is not yet certified. As these installations are rare and the no-visibility-capability is not required most of the time, an optical system capable of generating guidance data for the part of the approach not being covered by a CAT I system can close that gap.
