  • In collaboration with SafeSky and OGN, Avionix is introducing the most advanced ground station to extend traffic reception at low altitude.

    Meet the "openAir multitrack All-in-one" Receiver! Why improve air safety? LFNA (Gap Tallard): a perfect example. Nestled in the splendid French Alps, LFNA is a must-visit for aviation enthusiasts. It offers a variety of activities, from gliders to ultralights, motor planes, and parachute jumps. LFNA is a bustling hub of aerial activities. However, these diverse aerial activities come with inherent risks, and pilots flying to or from LFNA must navigate a complex airspace, requiring extra vigilance and attention to safety. Adding to this complexity are the limitations of "See and Avoid" rules  and the limited electronic traffic visibility and availability. To address these safety concerns, our SafeSky team is working hard. We recently achieved a significant milestone with over 60,000 registered pilots. Today, we are focusing on an additional level of safety for all pilot categories at the entry points of airfields and in the approaches to aerodrome circuits. How to achieve this additional level of safety? Our partnership with AVIONIX and Open Glider Network. In collaboration with SafeSky and OGN, AVIONIX is introducing the most advanced ground station to extend traffic reception at low altitude. This "plug-and-play" solution is both comprehensive and professional, collecting traffic data from various "eConspicuous" radio systems, including ADS-B, FLARM, OGN-Tracker, PilotAware, FANET, ADS-L, and recreational drones using Remote ID. The ground station data is directly transmitted to the OGN and SafeSky network, providing traffic information to pilots through the SafeSky app and other compatible navigation software. The installation and configuration. The installation of the ground station at LFNA was swift. In collaboration with "Alpes en Ciel," SafeSky obtained permission to install an antenna on the roof of the hangar. Placed at an elevated position for maximum coverage, the antenna was discreetly connected to the ground station inside. The setup was straightforward, involving the creation of a Wi-Fi access point and connection to the station's web interface. Within an hour, the installation was operational, providing visibility of air traffic within a radius of 50 to 200 kilometers. The result: an additional layer of safety. Thanks to the ground station's traffic data integrated into the SafeSky network, pilots benefit from an extra layer of safety with complete visibility of nearby aircraft, even at low altitudes. Conclusion. The installation of the ground station at LFNA, coupled with the use of the free SafeSky app and other compatible systems, is a significant step forward in enhancing aviation safety. Pilots now have the necessary tools to make informed decisions and adopt preventive behaviors to avoid conflicts. This contributes to a safer and more efficient airspace, even in the absence of the AFIS operator. By providing pilots with a constant awareness of air traffic, SafeSky reaffirms itself as a complementary safety solution, in all operational circumstances. This is just the beginning... The installation at LFNA is only the first illustration of the shared ambition between SafeSky, Avionix, and OGN, in collaboration with federations, national institutions, and clubs. A large-scale European project is emerging on the horizon, and you'll have the privilege of being the first spectators of this safer sky. Stay tuned for details in the coming weeks on how we are collectively creating a safer sky. For more information : SafeSky Avionix

  • Avia Maps navigation app now enhanced with SafeSky’s traffic information.

    We are delighted to announce our partnership with Avia Maps , a trusted name in aviation navigation. As part of this collaboration, Avia Maps will join SafeSky's growing list of compatible navigation software partners. Through this integration, Avia Maps pilots will have the ability to seamlessly display the complete SafeSky traffic on their navigation maps using just an internet connection (via the so-called GDL 90 protocol). Tristan FILY , CEO of SafeSky, expressed excitement about the partnership, stating, " We are thrilled to welcome Avia Maps to our expanding community of approved navigation partners. This collaboration exemplifies our ongoing commitment to interoperability to offer the greater traffic awareness for pilots . " Andreas DEKIERT , CEO of Remy Webservices, emphasised the significance of this partnership: “ The integration of SafeSky's real-time traffic information is a highly requested feature by Avia Maps pilots and has been prioritised on our development roadmap. It greatly complements our ICAO styled aviation maps with existing weather and terrain overlays, providing pilots with enhanced situational awareness. To ensure a visually cohesive experience, Avia Maps has adopted SafeSky's aircraft iconography, making the integration even more seamless and intuitive for pilots . ” For more information: · SafeSky: please visit our website · Avia Maps: please visit Avia Maps ’ website or Google Play (Avia Maps is currently only available for Android)

  • CloudDash now integrated with SafeSky.

    We are excited to announce a bilateral air traffic exchange agreement with  CloudDash , an advanced app designed for paragliding, paramotoring, and ultralight aviation. This partnership enhances traffic awareness and data insights for pilots from both platforms, aiming for a safer flying experience. What you need to know: SafeSky has long made paramotor and paraglider traffic more visible to other sky users. CloudDash was one of the last major free-flight apps missing from our integration list. CloudDash is a popular app providing real-time in-flight data such as ground speed, altitude, wind speed, and direction. This integration offers even more precise tracking and complete safety for both SafeSky and CloudDash pilots. Thomas GRØNNELØV  from CloudDash says, " I'm happy that SafeSky led the way and made this unified, multi-source data publicly available—benefitting both SafeSky, CloudDash, and the flying community. I had explored other sources before, and nothing compares to what SafeSky offers freely for the good of us all. That is greatly appreciated !"   SafeSky CEO Tristan FILY  adds, " Making invisible traffic more visible is at the heart of what we do at SafeSky. Our partnership with CloudDash reflects that together, we're not just enhancing technology; we're living our motto: 'Only together we create a safer sky .'" Traffic awareness in CloudDash thanks to SafeSky integration.
