Thanks to a partnership with Viasat, Gotonomi offers coverage for unmanned aircraft operating virtually anywhere in the world through the Velaris service. Velaris is the first service from Viasat that has been specifically designed to provide commercial UAVs with ubiquitous connectivity and safety capabilities. Gotonomi solutions also provide coverage through cellular network services.
The Gotonomi product family provides a reliable and secure platform for developing the next generation of commercial drone applications, free from the constraints of line-of-sight communications links. Satellite and cellular data can both be intelligently routed through an SD-WAN connection to cloud services, with separate paths and QoS for C2 and telemetry.
