on september 4, the first guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area low-altitude economy seminar (guangzhou) was held in nansha. the seminar attracted nearly 200 people from guangdong, hong kong and macao, including academicians, experts, government agencies, associations, leading manufacturers, upstream and downstream industrial chain companies, and investment banks, to discuss the future development of the low-altitude economy.
the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area is one of the most open and economically dynamic regions in my country, and the service field and market space of the airside economy driven by it are huge. yang xijiang, member of the party committee and deputy general manager of guangdong airport management group co., ltd., and chairman of the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area low-altitude economic industry alliance, said that last year the total economic output of the greater bay area exceeded 14 trillion yuan, the industrial cooperation corridor has gradually expanded, and the economic level has continued to rise. various factors have led to the development of "low-altitude economy" with many application scenarios and huge potential market demand.
china becomes the country with the largest application area of ​​agricultural drones
my country is a large agricultural country. after experiencing the three industrial revolutions of agricultural revolution, industrial revolution and information revolution, agriculture has also quietly changed. smart agriculture with information technology as the core element has emerged. it uses highly automated and intelligent plant protection drones as carriers and is mainly used in the exploration of aerial spraying technology and operation modes for major crops, tall and densely planted crops, and cash crops. academician lan yubin, a member of the european academy of sciences, arts and humanities of france, director and chief scientist of the international joint research center for precision agricultural aerial spraying technology, introduced that due to the application and promotion of key technologies of precision agricultural aviation, the effect of aerial plant protection integrated prevention and control is 10% to 20% higher than that of farmers' self-prevention, reducing the use of pesticides by 20% to 30%, and increasing the utilization rate of pesticides by more than 10%. at present, my country has become the country with the largest application area of ​​agricultural drones in the world.
lan yubin believes that agricultural drones, as a representative of the low-altitude economy, are gradually becoming an important support for agricultural modernization. the low-altitude economy will also take advantage of the vast market of agricultural modernization to continuously expand its own development space and applications. it is foreseeable that in the future, the low-altitude economy will be deeply integrated with agricultural modernization, and the construction of modern farms will be enabled by advanced low-altitude equipment, which will write a new chapter in agricultural development.
does low-altitude traffic also have traffic lights?
the current low-altitude economy is facing major development opportunities and will create a new era of intelligent services, that is, everyone can use drones and every family can enjoy drone services. regarding the problems and challenges brought about by this trillion-dollar economic outlet, professor cheng chengqi, a member of the national air traffic control committee's expert advisory committee and director of the aerospace information engineering research center of peking university, believes that a low-altitude three-dimensional traffic light system with unified national time and space standards should be established, and low-altitude infrastructure construction technology should be developed to achieve "same track, same writing" in low-altitude construction. specifically, it is necessary to create a unified national low-altitude time and space standard, promote the construction of a low-altitude three-dimensional traffic light system, and promote the application of low-altitude three-dimensional traffic light infrastructure.
in this regard, professor cheng chengqi also suggested that in addition to increasing the promotion of national standards such as the beidou grid, actively carrying out technical research on low-altitude three-dimensional traffic traffic light systems, and striving to develop a national unified low-altitude traffic map standard, it is also necessary to take the lead in the construction of low-altitude three-dimensional traffic traffic light systems (one map) pilot areas in provinces and cities with better conditions, create technology pilot bases, and promote technological innovation and industrialization.
time and space information makes low-altitude economic flying safe
at present, the low-altitude economic industry is shifting from high-speed growth to high-quality development, facing challenges such as difficult air management, safety in complex environments, and insufficient intelligence. xing hanfa, deputy director of the guangdong institute of innovation and science, executive director of the beidou institute of south china normal university, and chief technical consultant of guangzhou chenxing future aviation technology, proposed the view that space-time information empowers the low-altitude economy, turning the low-altitude airspace into a calibrable, quantifiable, calculable, manageable, and usable space-time data space, and believes that the development of a new type of infrastructure, the space-time digital base, can ensure that the low-altitude economy can "fly", the development of integrated communication, navigation, and remote sensing can ensure that the low-altitude economy "flies with confidence", and the development of space-time intelligent technology can help the low-altitude economy "fly smartly" with the support of intelligent decision-making, thereby comprehensively helping the low-altitude economy achieve high-quality development.
drone delivery scenarios are diverse
the field of logistics and distribution has become one of the hot tracks for the development of low-altitude economy in various places. wu enyu, marketing director of shenzhen wanyi electronic technology group co., ltd., reviewed the three stages of logistics drones: "germination development", "entry of enterprises", and "explosion of applications", and believed that national policies, technological development, and application subsidies are the key driving factors for the stage progression. at present, drones have more subdivided scenarios in the field of logistics and distribution, and are currently mainly concentrated in the three categories of terminal distribution, trunk and branch line transportation, and warehousing management. wu enyu believes that logistics drones are mainly used to solve the "last mile distribution". in the future, their large-scale and wide-ranging application will bring more efficient and convenient possibilities for emergency service scenarios, complex universal service scenarios, and high-frequency, high-value-added high-end delivery scenarios.
the development of low-altitude economy requires a "smart brain"
at the seminar, experts from all walks of life heatedly discussed the application of low-altitude economic scenarios.
xiao jing, a researcher at the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area low-altitude economy research institute and general manager of hong kong urban air mobility co., ltd., said that urban air traffic is the most market-valuable application scenario of the low-altitude economy. how to improve the utilization rate of low-altitude airspace and release air resources is also a challenge, including airspace system design and implementation, how to integrate into urban communities, and how to manage evtol (electric vertical take-off and landing aircraft) individually.
"the scale and safety of the low-altitude economy require the strong support of new low-altitude infrastructure." in this regard, yuan fangzheng, senior vice president of jiechuang intelligence, gave an example, saying that jiechuang changqing cloud's full-stack intelligent low-altitude cloud base has established an "intelligent brain" for the regional low-altitude economy. from careful planning before the flight, to safety control during the flight, to quantitative analysis after the flight, it can achieve intelligent management of the entire life cycle of the low-altitude economy and ensure the safe, efficient and high-quality development of the low-altitude economy.
the current low-altitude economy is facing major development opportunities and will create a new era of intelligent services, that is, everyone can use drones and every family can enjoy drone services. regarding the problems and challenges brought about by this trillion-dollar economic outlet, yuan fangzheng said that in order to meet the application needs of various fields of the low-altitude economy, jie chuang intelligent has established a special project for the development of low-altitude economy and reached a strategic cooperation with guangzhou chenxing future aviation technology co., ltd., leveraging the innovation drive of the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area low-altitude economy research institute (hong kong) and the beidou research institute of south china normal university, and launched a drone intelligent control platform, which has been applied in many fields such as power inspection, construction site monitoring, urban transportation, and railway inspection. it has also developed corresponding service solutions for application scenarios such as logistics distribution, smart inspection, and smart agriculture, reducing the operating costs and labor costs of vertical industries and improving work efficiency and operation accuracy.
the seminar was co-organized by the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area low-altitude economy industry alliance, the guangdong-hong kong-macao greater bay area low-altitude economy research institute (hong kong), the shenzhen uav industry association, the guangzhou nansha guangdong-macao development promotion association, the macau university of science and technology, the national international joint research center for precision agriculture aerial application technology, and the emba of the school of management of fudan university.
