“…This is mainly an ethical issue on which policy makers should work with stakeholders (Finn and Wright 2016), especially in the case of micro-drones or indoor drones that do not require a flight licence or training to be used. However, the European data protection regulations serve to reinforce this aspect of drones' use.…”

“…Here, the discourse of UAV regulations includes public safety and liability in case of an accident, societal benefits and stakeholders in international regulatory bodies such as the European Commission [40], rule-guided risks and opportunities of UAV [44], ethical tolerability [45], and effects upon privacy and other civil liberties [46]. The latter mentioned authors further used self-reported material of representatives of different drone sectors (including civil aviation authorities and data protection authorities) to study perspectives on privacy, data protection and ethical aspects [47]. They detected "[ .…”

UAVs-unmanned aerial vehicles-facilitate data acquisition at temporal and spatial scales that still remain unachievable for traditional remote sensing platforms. However, current legal frameworks that regulate UAVs present significant barriers to research and development. To highlight the importance, impact, and diversity of UAV regulations, this paper provides an exploratory investigation of UAV regulations on the global scale. For this, the methodological approach consists of a research synthesis of UAV regulations, including a thorough literature review and a comparative analysis of national regulatory frameworks. Similarities and contrasting elements in the various national UAV regulations are explored including their statuses from the perspectives of past, present, and future trends. Since the early 2000s, countries have gradually established national legal frameworks. Although all UAV regulations have one common goal-minimizing the risks to other airspace users and to both people and property on the ground-the results reveal distinct variations in all the compared variables. Furthermore, besides the clear presence of legal frameworks, market forces such as industry design standards and reliable information about UAVs as public goods are expected to shape future developments.
