The purpose of the BEYOND program is for the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to work with state, local and tribal (SLT) governments toward full, safe integration of UAS into the national airspace system (NAS). There are eight SLT governments in the BEYOND program currently. The FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024, Section 920, enables the FAA to expand the BEYOND program to include additional SLT governments.
BEYOND participants and other select proponents submit operational data, including monthly flight data, Automated Data Service Provider (ADSP) monthly data, and anomaly data. The purpose of these submissions is to monitor the safety of the flights and the effectiveness of the safety mitigations in place, and inform policy and decision-making related to the risks associated with operations involving command and control (C2) links, detect and avoid (DAA) capabilities, ADSP reliability, anomaly detection, and a host of other categories, to solve challenges in enabling UAS beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations.
