Global registration system for aerial vehicles

A system for aerial vehicle registration, comprising:

• a server computer and at least one database constructed and configured for network communication with at least one aerial vehicle and at least one user device;
• wherein the at least one aerial vehicle is operable to transmit a registration request to the server computer;
• wherein the server computer is configured to assign a unique registration identification (ID) for the at least one aerial vehicle;
• wherein the at least one database is operable to store registration data of the at least one aerial vehicle;
• wherein the at least one user device is operable to register at least one geofence on the server computer;
• wherein the at least one database is operable to store information of the at least one geofence;
• wherein each of the at least one geofence comprises a plurality of geographic designators defined by a plurality of unique Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) addresses;
• wherein one of the plurality of unique IPv6 addresses is encoded as a unique identifier for each of the at least one geofence;
• and
• wherein the server computer is operable to cache the information of the at least one geofence on the at least one aerial vehicle.

A method for aerial vehicle registration, comprising:

• providing a server computer and at least one database constructed and configured for network communication with at least one aerial vehicle;
• the at least one aerial vehicle transmitting a registration request to the server computer;
• the server computer assigning a unique registration identification (ID) to the at least one aerial vehicle;
• the at least one database storing registration data of the at least one aerial vehicle;
• and
• the server computer caching information of a multiplicity of registered geofences on the at least one aerial vehicle, wherein the at least one database comprises a geofence database storing the information of the multiplicity of registered geofences, wherein 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, wherein one of the plurality of unique IPv6 addresses is encoded as a unique identifier for each of the multiplicity of registered geofences.
