Best-in-Class Traffic Information Service: A Game Changer for BVLOS Drone Operations

A Key BVLOS Enabler

In the rapidly evolving world of drone operations, ensuring safety for drones flying Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) is paramount. Traditionally, pilots rely on the ‘see and avoid’ principle to navigate safely in the air. However, with BVLOS operations, this principle is replaced by ‘detect and deconflict,’ allowing remote pilots to make informed decisions in real time.

A robust Traffic Information Service (TIS) is a crucial enabler for BVLOS drone operations. Without direct visual contact, pilots must rely on real-time traffic data to safely navigate the airspace and avoid conflicts. SkeyDrone’s TIS goes beyond standard industry solutions, ensuring complete airspace awareness.

Unmatched Coverage: Cooperative and Non-Cooperative Drone Traffic

Unlike conventional solutions that only display cooperative drone traffic, SkeyDrone’s TIS provides a complete picture by incorporating both cooperative and non-cooperative air traffic. Cooperative drones are visualized using either their direct remote ID or their telemetry data. Our nationwide drone detection network captures and displays non-cooperative drones, significantly reducing the risk of mid-air conflicts. This comprehensive approach enhances safety and enables seamless integration of drones into shared airspace.

Beyond Standard Aviation Data: A Holistic Approach

For crewed aviation, our TIS doesn’t just rely on the usual data sources such as Mode-S, ADS-B, and FLARM. We take it a step further by integrating with community-based platforms like SafeSky and ADS-B Exchange. This means that drone pilots gain access to the most extensive real-time traffic data available without the need for additional integrations. By combining multiple data sources, we ensure drone operators have a full, accurate, and continuously updated traffic picture.

Leading the Future of Drone Traffic Management

As drone operations continue to grow, the need for an advanced and reliable Traffic Information Service has never been greater. SkeyDrone’s TIS is setting new industry standards, ensuring that drone operators can conduct BVLOS flights with confidence, efficiency, and, most importantly, safety. By combining real-time data from multiple sources, including non-cooperative traffic detection, SkeyDrone is empowering the future of autonomous and integrated drone operations.
