Deveron Receives Transport Canada Approval to Operate in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba; Invited to Present at St Louis InfoAg Conference


TORONTO, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - July 26, 2016) - Deveron UAS Corp. ("Deveron" or the "Company") (CSE:DVR), is pleased to announce that the Company has received authority to operate under a Standing Special Flight Operations Certificate ("SFOC"), for its Unmanned Aerial Systems ("UAS") in Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba as a Restricted Operator - Complex Operations. The SFOC has been issued under the authority of Transport Canada pursuant to the Aeronautics Act. Under its SFOC, Deveron has received approvals to expand into western Canada with up to four different pieces of hardware.

A Standing SFOC is issued to allow operations within a defined geographical boundary (e.g. province) and removes the requirement to submit individual sites for prior approval, subject to certain conditions. A Standing SFOC is not issued until the UAV operator has gained sufficient experience and demonstrates a history of safe operations.

Deveron is a leading drone data service company for agriculture and now holds multi-jurisdictional standing SFOCs. The company is standardizing data collection and processing while it builds an enterprise solution for agricultural producers that now stretches multiple provinces in Canada. Having previously secured an SFOC for Ontario, the company now has capacity to operate from Ontario through into Alberta.

"As we build Deveron into one of Canada's leading drone data service companies for agriculture, our focus has been to build a network that can service the enterprise. With SFOC approvals across multiple operating jurisdictions, the foundation is being built to serve farming clients from Ontario to the BC border. Collectively, there are over 80 million acres of farmland in Canada that can benefit from high resolution drone imagery," commented Deveron's President and CEO, David MacMillan.

InfoAg Conference

Deveron has been invited to participate at InfoAg, one of North America's leading agriculture technology conferences being held in St. Louis. Deveron's Head of UAS Agriculture, Norm Lamothe, will focus his presentation on the value to farmers of our drone data, analytics and prescriptions and on how Deveron has been able to recommend appropriate solutions for yield improvement and cost reductions across Ontario.
