Global registration system for aerial vehicles
Systems and methods for aerial vehicle registration are disclosed. A server computer and at least one database are constructed and configured for network communication with at least one aerial vehicle. The at least one aerial vehicle transmits a registration request to the server computer. The server computer assigns a unique registration ID for the at least one aerial vehicle. The at least one database comprises a geofence database storing information of a multiplicity of registered geofences. Each of the multiplicity of registered geofences comprises a plurality of geographic designators defined by a plurality of unique Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses. One of the plurality of unique IPv6 addresses is encoded as a unique identifier for each of the multiplicity of registered geofences. The server computer caches the information of the multiplicity of registered geofences on the at least one aerial vehicle.
