SkeyDrone and SafeSky collaborate to improve safety of manned and unmanned aviation

SkeyDrone and SafeSky have announced a collaboration agreement to share air traffic information between manned and unmanned aviation. The goal of this collaboration is to improve safety for both types of aircraft in the increasingly congested skies.

Under the agreement, SkeyDrone plans to integrate and validate SafeSky’s (manned) traffic data as part of its certification as U-space service provider. Both companies will share real-time traffic information about their aircrafts’ positions, flight paths, and schedules. This information exchange will allow both manned and unmanned aircraft to avoid mid-air collisions and other potential safety hazards. 

By joining forces, SkeyDrone and SafeSky can leverage their respective strengths and expertise to deliver innovative technologies that enhance situational awareness, enable safe and efficient operations, and ultimately help to prevent accidents, says the press release.

This collaboration between SafeSky, representing the general aviation community, and SkeyDrone, representing the drone industry, is an important step towards safely integrating both airspace users. By working together to share information and optimize the use of airspace, the companies hope to build a safer and more efficient aviation ecosystem for everyone.

“This partnership allows us to further strengthen our ambition as (future) U-space service provider. The traffic information service we offer already today to our customers (drone operators) is the only aviation-grade solution in this young market and is accepted as safe air risk mitigation measure by national aviation authorities.” said Hendrik-Jan Van Der Gucht, Managing Director of SkeyDrone.
