JUPEM plays a role in the security of classified geospatial information in Malaysia. According to General Circular No. 1 of 2007: Classified Geospatial Information Security Instruction Circular, each drone/UAV/UAS operation equipped with a camera or any sensor is categorized as an imaging and data capture operation. Therefore, it must have written permission from the Director-General of Survey and Mapping Malaysia.

Permission from JUPEM is subject to drones/UAV/UAS which are equipped with cameras or sensors only. Other than that, the operation must be referred directly to the Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM).
