Abstract

This paper deals with the importance of expertise for improving situational awareness and real-time picture. As an example we use Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS). Our research process began by defining the topic and objectives as well as the theory of experience. Research material was collected through interviews and by analyzing scientific publications, newspaper articles and video clips. Most of the scientific publications from the subject concentrate only on the building, on the planning and on the technical properties of UAS. The unmanned model planes are used mainly for different military purposes at the moment. On the basis of this we ensured that we are studying this issue in question among the first ones in Finland. In this paper we use the method of case study research to improve the situational awareness and real-time picture by using UASs in organizations.
