Campus communicators, multimedia producers, researchers, and anyone else who might like to fly a drone over campus, have to go through a rigorous training program in order to operate a UAS on and over campus. ¶¶ÒõÂÃÐÐÉä Boulder has a Director of Flight Operations within the department of Integrity, Safety, and Compliance, and all Third-Party Operator Requests need to go through him for approval. Specific information regarding this can be found on the Division of Public Safety site.Ìý

To fly a drone on campus as a third-party operator, we require the following:

• Certificate of UAS insurance
• Proof of UAS registration
• Detailed safety plan to include times of operation, plans to avoid flights over people, plans for takeoff and landing, etc.
• If the flight obstructs access to any facility, or requires any facility to be closed, you must coordinate with the appropriate facilities manager; Flight Operations cannot give approval for obstructing access to or closing a facility.
• This plan must be submitted to the Director of Flight Operations no less than 10 business days in advance of the desired flight time; we strongly recommend submitting this proposal 14 business days in advance of the desired flight time.

With all of that said, we do have an extensive video archive of drone footage on campus. We are able to provide this footage upon request.
