The low-altitude Economy (LAE) is a key strategic emerging industry, and an important driving force of the new economic engine for innovation-driven growth. Cyberport hosted a two-day LAE Exhibition on May 9-10, 2025, highlighting the continuous advancement of LAE in Hong Kong. Esri China (Hong Kong) showcased the Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management (UTM) based on ArcGIS technology at the exhibition.

Adopting open data available from the Common Spatial Data Infrastructure (CSDI) Portal, including 3D buildings, terrain, government facilities and more, our UTM formulated a map for a Risk Index for Drone Operation. With the Risk Index, drone managers can calculate a suitable flight path and select appropriate take-off/landing sites. Additionally, our UTM offers functions such as flight simulation, real-time surveillance, and conflict management to mitigate risks and ensure safe, efficient operations for various kinds of missions. 

Cyberport was appointed by the Hong Kong SAR Government as a venue partner for the LAE Regulatory Sandbox. The exhibition features a diverse and representative lineup of participants included for the SAR Government’s LAE Regulatory Sandbox pilot projects. 

Business Development Director Mr. Tony Chan demonstrated the ArcGIS-based Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management (UTM) at the exhibition.
