JARUS is pleased to announce to the RPAS Community that the deliverable “JAR doc 06 on
Specific Operations Risk Assessment (SORA)” is now available on the JARUS Website at
http://jarus-rpas.org/publications.
This document recommends a risk assessment methodology to establish a sufficient level of confidence that a specific operation can be conducted safely. Next to the document there are two Annexes;
Annex A – Guidelines on collecting and presenting system and operation information for a specific UAS operation and, Annex I – Glossary of Terms.
IMPORTANT: This is a living document, therefore this first issue of the SORA is meant to inspire operators and approving authorities and to highlight the benefits of a harmonized risk assessment methodology. As the work on the SORA evolves, feedback from operators and authorities that use the SORA is highly beneficial. Working Group 6 is therefore making a call to everyone that will use the methodology to provide this feedback. For this reason, a specific “feedback form” has been created at http://jarus-rpas.org/feedback/SORA
This is another significant accomplishment by JARUS, with the contributions of our member
countries and the experts of Working Group 6 (Safety and Risk Management).
Feel free to forward this message to anyone interested about JARUS deliverables.
