roadmap’s recommendations. Such a dialogue can also identify emerging issues that require further elaboration. It is recognized that standardization activity will need to adapt as the ecosystem for UAS evolves due to technological innovations and regulatory developments. Depending upon the realities of the standards environment, the needs of stakeholders, and available resources, it is envisioned that this roadmap may be updated in the future. Ultimately, the aim of such an effort would be to provide a means to continue to guide, coordinate, and enhance standardization activity and enable the market for UAS to thrive. Appendix A.
