U-space Services
U-space services enable drones safe, efficient, and secure access to airspace. These services rely on a high level of digitalisation and automation of functions and specific procedures. U-space is designed to facilitate any kind of routine mission, in all classes of airspace and all types of environment – even the most congested – while addressing an appropriate interface with crewed aviation and air traffic control.
Within the European Union, U-space Service Providers (USSPs) are required to provide four mandatory services to drone operators in U-space: Traffic Information Service, Network Identification Service, Flight Authorisation Service and Geo-awareness. SkeyDrone offers the following services:

Traffic Information Service to Detect & Avoid
By combining multiple sources such as radar data and SkeyDrone’s detection network, our traffic information service provides unparalleled situational awareness. Our cutting-edge software, SkeyDrone Monitor, delivers a comprehensive air picture, displaying both crewed and uncrewed traffic, empowering you to navigate with confidence.
ADLC is using our Traffic Information Service to transport petrochemical samples from a plant in the north of Antwerp to a laboratory 14 km south, partially entering the controlled airspace of Antwerp Airport.
- Visualisation of live traffic, fused from different sources
- Display of non-cooperative uncrewed traffic
- AIS integration
- Intrusion alerts for self-definable zones
- Flight plan conformance monitoring
- Loss of separation detection

Network Information Service to Elevate your Visibility
By extracting location data from a drone operator, our telemetry API enables drone pilots to see themselves flying in all circumstances, ensuring them to remain visible in any scenario.
Flight Authorisation Service to be Standby to Fly
By automating and front-ending authorisation requests in the Port of Antwerp-Bruges, we automate and expedite authorisation requests, simplifying the authorisation process and eliminating the need for manual intervention. Enjoy the freedom to fly as we seamlessly grant you the green light to take flight.

SkeyDrone conducted the first BVLOS flight in controlled airspace around Brussels Airport — all while the airspace remained active for crewed aviation!
The drone took off from the 12th floor of the Living Tomorrow campus in Vilvoorde and was remotely operated from our control room 13 km away. This achievement marks a significant step forward in integrating drones safely into complex airspace.
