Counterdrone Protection for Uninterrupted Airspace Operations
Rogue drones pose a growing threat to airport security, flight safety, and operations. Advanced counterdrone solutions ensure uninterrupted air travel and protect passengers, aircraft, and airport infrastructure.
Unauthorized Drone Activity at Airports
A single unauthorized drone can bring air traffic to a standstill, leading to flight delays, mass cancellations, financial losses, and logistical chaos. In the worst case it could lead to a catastrophic safety incident.
Operational Shutdowns: Flight operations are halted as authorities investigate, causing ripple effects across global air travel
Financial Impact: Airports, airlines, and businesses incur massive costs from delays, re-routing, and increased security measures
Airline and Cargo Delays: The suspension of flights impacts not just passenger travel but also time-sensitive cargo shipments
Security and Legal Ramifications: Resources are diverted for investigations, and airports face regulatory scrutiny for security lapses
Long-lasting Reputational Damage: Uncertainty amongst the public and airlines to utilize an airport may lead to changing behaviors and routing decisions
Real-World Incidents
How Can C-UAS Help Airports?
DroneShield provides completely passive drone detection solutions, allowing for real time detection, identification, tracking, and mitigation for complete airspace awareness and control
Detection
Industry-leading sensors provide unmatched drone detection and tracking
Simultaneous detection and tracking of multiple drones
Identifies GNSS-navigated and silent drones through downlinks, capturing telemetry, location, and video feeds
Integration
Seamlessly integrates with existing third-party security and safety systems for enhanced protection
Zero-emission detection sensors operate without interference or spectrum approval requirements
Continuous optimization through training, customer support, and regular firmware updates to counter the latest in drone technology
Awareness
Real-time intelligence ensures rapid, informed decision-making
Identifies drone type, location, and direction while preserving critical data for analysis, risk mitigation and use in law enforcement activities
Detects and pinpoints drone operator’s location
Enhances risk management strategies, reducing long-term security costs and maximizing the capabilities of AI and machine learning technologies
Recording
Advanced software captures and stores essential drone activity data
Proprietary DroneOptID software records footage for investigative and legal purposes
Comprehensive alerting, tracking, and reporting provide a full operational picture
Mitigation (where lawful)
Airspace, aircraft, and airport operations can be defended via either or both discriminate or omni-directional counter-UAS capabilities
Threats can be neutralized automatically or manually, forcing rogue drones to land or return to the operator
Mitigation can be undertaken either onsite or offsite as either a single site or under an enterprise approach
