Drone users in the US will soon be required to register their aircraft with the Department of Transportation in an attempt to address safety concerns over the growing number of unauthorized flights.
The registry comes in response to concerns about a surge in incidents where drones have flown near airports and crowded public venues.
The FAA has reported more than 650 unauthorized drone sightings between 1 January and 9 August, compared with 238 in the whole of 2014. If sightings continue at that rate, the number would near 1,100 by the year’s end.
