About MaxHanse Aero
MaxHanse Aero is a young German-Norwegian company developing coordinated fleets of autonomous aerial and marine drone systems. The goal is to reduce mission costs and increase safety in search and rescue (SAR), coastal surveillance and offshore inspections. The offering comprises three service areas: a software layer for mission AI and fleet control that plans, assigns and monitors multi-vehicle missions across aerial and marine domains (operator-in-the-loop); the system-of-systems integration of third-party drones, unmanned surface vessels (USVs) and sensors into a coherent architecture, preferably via open standards; and mission design and field pilots, in which concepts of operations are developed jointly with partners and efficiency and safety gains are quantified. According to its own statement, the company exclusively deploys European technologies and addresses institutions pursuing pilot projects, joint research or early technology assessments. Location details and the founding year are not documented on the website.
