Drones as a risk to flight safety and infrastructure
A recent report by SWR and many other media makes it clear that unknown drones in the vicinity of airports are no longer a rarity. Again and again, take-offs and landings have to be interrupted or postponed because it is not clear whether a drone poses a danger to air traffic. Such incidents endanger flight safety and cause considerable economic damage.
The main challenge: lack of visibility in the airspace. If you don't know where drones are located, you can neither assess risks nor take countermeasures in good time.
TraX: Visibility in the airspace in real time
This is where the TraX air situation app from Droniq comes in. The web-based solution provides a real-time overview of manned and unmanned flying objects - creating transparency where there was previously uncertainty.
The advantages for users:
- Airports & airlines: reduce risks and avoid delays through clear situational awareness.
- Authorities & police: recognize threats more quickly and gain confidence to act.
- Critical infrastructure: receives reliable data to protect facilities from unauthorized drones.
Drone detection: identifying and assessing threats
The SWR report also shows that it is often unclear whether a drone is cooperative (with remote ID) or uncooperative. This is precisely where the drone detection system (DDS) comes in. It detects both cooperative drones (with remote ID) and uncooperative drones. Sensor fusion - i.e. the combination of RADAR, ADS-B, FLARM, Direct Remote ID and other sensors - creates a reliable situational picture. In this way, drones are reliably detected - regardless of whether they identify themselves.
Your advantage: instead of just seeing that a drone is in the airspace, you know where it is and how to react. This is a crucial building block for greater safety.
Flexible drone detection systems (DDS) for every need
With our DDS system, Droniq offers a modular system for drone detection that can be used in various scenarios. Whether at major events, in urban environments or to protect sensitive infrastructure - SenID reliably detects, classifies and localizes drones.
Advantages for users:
- Flexible use: mobile or stationary
- Scalable depending on security requirements
- Real-time data for quick decisions
From situational awareness to action - drone detection with added value
The combination of TraX and drone detection makes it possible not only to detect threats, but also to act in real time. All information flows directly into the live air situation and can be forwarded to security authorities or situation centers. This turns a potential risk into a concrete basis for action.
Your advantage: You gain valuable time and certainty of action - whether at the airport, in the city or when protecting critical infrastructure.
Conclusion: Digital solutions for safe airspaces
The SWR report shows how great the risks posed by unknown drones are in the vicinity of airports and critical infrastructure. With TraX and the DDS system, Droniq offers powerful solutions for drone detection and airspace monitoring. This allows you to maintain an overview at all times and minimize the risks posed by unauthorized drones in the long term.
