Recently, the "Delivery Route Planning Specification for Light and Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Urban Scenarios" jointly written by the Civil Aviation Administration of China Cadre College and Antwork and other units has been officially released on the official website of the Civil Aviation Administration of China. This specification is the first drone route standard proposed for urban scenarios, including the content of route planning, route scheme design, route validation optimization, and route generation and implementation, marking the beginning of the standardization era for urban air delivery.

Based on the previous experience and data of Antwork's 300000 kilometer operation in urban delivery scenarios, it has been found that air delivery requires high operational requirements and is difficult to operate in urban scenarios. In practical applications, it is necessary to focus on the safety of operation. Based on the above considerations, this regulation focuses on the safety of urban air routes, and for the first time proposes evaluation standards such as "route safety" and "operational reliability". It includes safety measures such as takeoff and landing waiting points, entry and exit points, and route alternate landing points set up by Ant in daily urban flights, ensuring the stable and orderly operation of urban air delivery.

As the first enterprise to be awarded a specific category of drone operation license by the Civil Aviation Administration of China, Antwork attaches great importance to the accumulation and refinement of experience during the trial operation work, and actively promotes the drafting of civil aviation industry standards and technical specifications related to urban delivery scenarios. In April this year, Antwork led the development of the "Technical Requirements for Urban Scene Logistics Electric Multi rotor Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (Light and Small) System", which was officially released and used by the Civil Aviation Administration of China, and standardized the product design and development of urban logistics unmanned aerial vehicles. The newly released "Specification for Logistics Route Planning of Light and Small Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Urban Scenarios" provides a clear definition of route rules. With the release of the distributed operation standards led by Antwork (which have been solicited for comments), the standardization of the core elements of "human", "machine", and "environment" in urban drone delivery scenarios is about to take shape as a whole. It can be foreseen that with the maturity of industry standardized and replicable models, the urban air delivery market will also enter an accelerated development channel simultaneously.
