遠方・山間部・解禁

Several companies have trialled drone delivery of goods; commercial use may soon become a reality in restricted areas such as remote islands and mountainous regions, as the government prepares to lift the ban there:

小型無人機ドローンによる遠方への荷物の配送が、早ければ今月中にも、人が少ない離島や山間部に限って解禁される。

Delivery of packages to distant locations by small unmanned drones may be permitted as early as this month, limited to sparsely populated remote islands and mountainous areas.
