1. A method for controlling a drone, comprising:
- transmitting, by a processor of the drone to a server, an identifier of the drone operator controlling the drone;
receiving, from the server, access restriction information based on the identifier of the drone operator; and
enabling, by the processor, control over operations of the drone by the drone operator in response to the access restriction information indicating that the drone operator is registered to operate the drone.

Abstract
Methods, systems, and devices are disclosed for operating a drone consistent with an access level of the drone and/or an operator of the drone. Various embodiments may include determining, by a processor of the drone, whether the drone is registered with an agency or the operator of the drone is registered to operate the drone. In response to determining that the drone and/or the operator is registered, the drone processor may operate the drone consistent with an access level of the drone and/or operator. In response to determining that the drone and/or the operator is registered, the drone processor may restrict operations of the drone.

21. A drone, comprising:
-
a transceiver; and a processor coupled to the transceiver and configured with processor-executable instructions to; transmit via the transceiver to a server an identifier of the drone operator controlling the drone; receive via the transceiver from the server access restriction information based on the identifier of the drone operator; and enable control over operations of the drone by the drone operator in response to the access restriction information indicating that the drone operator is registered to operate the drone. - View Dependent Claims (22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29)
