SafeSky API for UAV
SafeSky is a platform focused on enhancing situational awareness in lower airspace.
SafeSky operates as a traffic aggregation system that combines positional data from multiple complementary layers to deliver a comprehensive live view of the lower airspace:
- Ground station layer: aggregation of traffic from more than 16,000 ground stations, collecting cooperative signals such as ADS-B, ADS-L, Mode S, FLARM, FANET, OGN Tracker, PilotAware, FlyingNeuron and others.
- Mobile application layer: the SafeSky app is a source of cooperative traffic representing a community of more than 100,000 pilots across 14 aircraft categories
- Third-party integrations: direct API integrations with external hardware platforms, software solutions, and drone operator systems.
By connecting to the SafeSky API, drone operations become part of a collaborative safety network, contributing to a safer and more connected low-altitude airspace.
1 - See manned aviation
Access real-time traffic data around UAV operations, including helicopters, paramotors, paragliders, trikes, gliders, ultralights, and general aviation aircraft.
2 - Be seen by manned aviation
Broadcast UAV position, altitude, and flight status so manned aircraft within the SafeSky network can see and anticipate drone activity, fostering safer coexistence between manned and unmanned aviation.
