The New Development Trends of China's Low-Altitude Economy and Drone Industry Driven by Policies

Against the backdrop of the rapid development of the global economy and technology, the low-altitude economy, as an emerging economic form, holds great significance for development. This paper first elaborates on the origin of the low-altitude economy, which is the result of reflecting on the scientific allocation of low-altitude airspace resources and management reforms, and is closely related to the general aviation industry. Then, it reviews the policy support during the development of China's low-altitude economy. The continuous introduction of national and local policies has promoted its vigorous development. Subsequently, it provides a detailed introduction to the development of the drone industry, covering aspects such as technological improvement, intelligent development, expansion of application fields, and growth of the industrial scale. Moreover, drones and the low-altitude economy are highly integrated in terms of airspace utilization, technology, and industrial demand. The research shows that although China's low-altitude economy and drone development face challenges, with the impetus of policies and their own advantages, they have broad prospects for development and are of great significance for promoting high-quality economic development.
