We’re thrilled to announce the launch of the Aloft UTM SDK—our latest innovation aimed at advancing uncrewed traffic management (UTM) capabilities across the drone industry. As the leading FAA-approved UAS Service Supplier (USS), Aloft continues to push boundaries in providing real-time telemetry and airspace services, critical for compliance and essential for BVLOS (beyond visual line of sight), DFR (drone first responder), and drone delivery operations.
Powering the Future of Drone Operations
The Aloft UTM SDK enables hardware manufacturers and software providers alike to seamlessly integrate Aloft’s advanced airspace services into their own products. This means that drone pilots and enterprise fleets can now access a robust set of features—ranging from flight logging to real-time telemetry and compliance monitoring—straight from their platform of choice. Our new SDK and UTM integrations have already attracted top drone OEMs, including Autel, Skydio, and Rigitech, and we’re pleased to highlight our newest integration with Dronelink.
Partner Spotlight: Dronelink
Dronelink provides a powerful software platform for flight planning, automation, and data capture. Through our integration, Dronelink users can now enjoy more streamlined flight logging and compliance tracking, all powered by Aloft’s UTM engine. From setting up Aloft Air Control flight logging within Dronelink to leveraging Aloft’s real-time telemetry, this integration equips drone operators with the capabilities they need to stay compliant, improve operational efficiency, and prepare for more advanced operations.

Simple Integration, Advanced Capabilities
Our vision at Aloft has always been to simplify the complexities of drone operations. By abstracting away the challenges of transmitting real-time telemetry data, verifying compliance, and managing critical safety information, we allow our partners to focus on delivering the best possible user experience. Whether you’re a hardware manufacturer looking to integrate advanced flight controls or a software provider aiming to enhance your platform’s UTM features, the Aloft UTM SDK offers a straightforward path to implementation—requiring only a few simple commands to power new UTM and logging capabilities.
Unlocking the Power of UTM
The Aloft UTM SDK simplifies the integration of advanced UTM and logging features into drone hardware and software. With just a few lines of code, developers can provide their users with access to:
> Real-time Flight Telemetry: Transmit real-time flight data to the Aloft network for display on the user’s Aloft AirControl dashboard.
> Automated Flight Log Uploads: Effortlessly capture and upload comprehensive flight logs to Aloft servers.
> Offline Support: Ensure uninterrupted operations even in areas without connectivity. Flight logs are automatically uploaded once a connection is re-established.
User Location Reporting: Enable efficient team coordination and personnel tracking.
