The Finnish UAV Ecosystem (FUAVE) supports the development of Finnish knowledge base and business related to unmanned aviation.

Main actions:

  • Networking and joint development between the stakeholders

  • Definition of operating principles for test areas in urban and rural areas

  • Demonstrations of cutting-edge technology and commercial applications

  • Raising the public awareness of new drone services

  • Championing Finnish companies to be the leaders in new drone products and services

UAV Test Areas

UAV Test areas act as Living Lab environments in urban and rural areas. These areas provide a one-stop-shop for unmanned aviation research, business and applications. Currently, test area planning includes the following areas:

  • Oulu-Hailuoto (EFD682)

  • Helsinki Jätkäsaari

  • Helsinki-East Aerodrome

  • OuluZone

  • Savukoski

  • Sjökulla test field
