SafeSky and SkeyDrone have entered into a collaboration to exchange real-time air traffic data
between manned and unmanned aviation sectors.
SkeyDrone’s is providing SafeSky with cooperative and non-cooperative drone traffic data
for flights above 500 feet.
This unique integration allows SafeSky pilots to receive drone activity alerts in Belgium,
further enhancing safety for all airspace participants.
A Unprecedented Milestone in Airspace Integration
SafeSky and SkeyDrone have partnered to enable, for the first time in the world, the visibility of non-cooperative drones to manned aviation through SafeSky’s platform. This integration allows pilots using the SafeSky’s app, or one of the 30+ integrated hardware and software solutions, to receive real-time alerts about nearby drone activities. This advancement significantly enhances situational awareness and safety for all airspace users, including general aviation, helicopters, ultralights, gliders, paramotors, and paragliders.
Enhancing Safety for BVLOS Drone Operations
For drone operators, conducting Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) flights comes with significant challenges, particularly in detecting and avoiding other airspace users in low-altitude environments. By integrating SafeSky’s unique traffic data, SkeyDrone’s Traffic Information Service (TIS) provides real-time visibility of manned aircraft, offering a more complete and dynamic picture of the airspace. This improved situational awareness is essential for safer BVLOS operations, helping to reduce the risk of mid-air collisions and support compliance with aviation safety regulations.
