Problem
Cities lack real‑time visibility into low‑altitude drone activity, relying on self‑reporting that leaves critical infrastructure exposed to unauthorized or unsafe operations.
Solution
AerialGrid offers an Airspace Trust Infrastructure that combines edge sensor hardware (radar, RF, and sensor‑fusion) with a city‑wide monitoring platform called Sky Grid. The system detects both cooperative and non‑cooperative drones, providing verified, real‑time situational awareness for municipal authorities. Pilots use the Sky Guard mobile app to obtain live route checks, de‑confliction advice, and safe‑to‑fly intelligence, ensuring compliance with remote‑ID requirements via the optional Sky Tag retrofit device. All data are processed in a secure cloud environment and presented through dashboards that translate raw detections into actionable airspace governance insights. This integrated approach creates a transparent, secure low‑altitude airspace layer that supports the scaling of autonomous drone services.
Target Audience
Primary customers are municipal governments, airport authorities, and large‑scale drone service operators that need reliable airspace monitoring and compliance enforcement.
