Airspace Spatial™ for Airports & Aviation
Advanced Security for Modern Aviation
The New Challenge
Maintaining operational continuity and ensuring the safety of passengers, personnel, and airline assets is the primary objective for airport executives. The escalating volume of unauthorized drone traffic in proximity to airports introduces a complex and dynamic security challenge.
The Airspace Defense Solution
Airspace Spatial™, co-developed with the U.S. Department of Defense, provides a definitive solution for establishing secure skies. As a founding member of the FAA Drone Advisory Committee and an active participant in the Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Identification and Tracking Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC), Airspace is an authority in both the policy and technology required to safeguard people and property.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) projects that the U.S. commercial drone fleet will expand to 828,000 units by 2024, with the recreational fleet reaching approximately 1.48 million units. This significant increase in drone activity necessitates a sophisticated and proactive security posture.
Always-On Monitoring
Airspace Spatial™ leverages Artificial Intelligence and advanced robotics to deliver a fully automated, persistent monitoring solution. It is engineered to fulfill the three mandatory requirements of comprehensive airspace security: long-range detection, instantaneous classification, and immediate response protocols for unauthorized or malicious drones.
Modern drone detection technology provides airport operators with detailed, multi-dimensional analysis of UAS activity within and around their operational perimeter. Airspace Spatial gives airports the technical capability to determine a drone's precise location, identify the operator's position, analyze historical flight behaviors, and predict probable future flight paths.
Integration with Existing Security Infrastructure
Airspace Spatial™ is designed for seamless integration into established security management practices.
Sensor Fusion with AI: It utilizes a combination of sensor fusion, Artificial Intelligence, and machine learning to minimize the rate of false positives. This ensures that the intelligence delivered to security teams and law enforcement is both valuable and actionable.
Automated Alerting: The system delivers automated alerts via a web-based application, mobile app, and email, which can be integrated directly into existing security information and event management (SIEM) systems.
Historical Detection Analysis: It tracks and logs all detection data to characterize drone activity patterns in the vicinity of the airport, including identifying typical launch/recovery sites and common flight corridors.
FAA Compliant Operations
The FAA and other international aviation regulators mandate that drone security providers meet specific technical and operational response requirements. Airspace Spatial is engineered to meet or exceed these standards, providing organizations with the confidence that their people and property remain secure.
