Belgium Sets a Milestone in the World of Drones with the Innovative Partnership Between Citymesh and Nokia

The drone technology is about to take a giant leap. Citymesh, one of the leading telecommunications companies in Belgium, has chosen Nokia’s innovative 5G-connected drone solution to power the first national range drone network on the planet.

Nokia Drone Networks: Revolutionizing the Industry with 5G Connectivity

Citymesh’s strategic choice is the Nokia Drone Networks platform. With a robust set of 70 Drone-in-a-Box units, this platform promises to revolutionize Belgian airspace by delivering 5G-connected drones throughout the country.

Continuous Surveillance: 24/7 Ready Drones Equipped with Thermal Cameras

The drones, in addition to their advanced 5G connectivity, come equipped with thermal video cameras, offering an unprecedented surveillance solution. They are always ready to take off, at any time of day or night, seven days a week.

Efficient Remote Management: Five Operations Centers Across the Country

These high-tech drones are remotely managed from five operations centers strategically located throughout the country. This approach ensures effective and constant control of the drone traffic, maximizing safety and efficiency.

This milestone in the drone industry represents a significant advancement in how airborne technology can be utilized and managed. The partnership between Nokia and Citymesh marks the beginning of a new era in 5G connectivity, shaping the future of drone services worldwide.
