For successful communication it is necessary for there to be a common understanding of terms and the situation and context in which they are used.
To ensure a common understanding of specific terms relating to unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), it is necessary to have a document which lists the terms and explains their meanings.
The .pdf file is not a new set of formal definitions. It intends to provide the necessary explanation of meaning of words and terms relevant to the UAS Knowledge Resource website. Additional comments are provided to assist understanding. The paper is subject to constant revision to cater for the evolution of language, concepts and technology.
