New European Commission-Funded Research on Countering Drone Threats
In recognition of the risks posed by non-cooperative drones, but especially in cities, the European Commission's Directorate-General for Migration and Home Affairs (DG HOME) launched in August 2020 an external study of different metropolitan approaches in confronting this challenge now and in the years to come. Specifically, the study looks to identify, assess and provide guidance and recommendations concerning different possible measures aimed at addressing the security-related threats that drones pose to different stakeholders in a metropolitan context.
