FlightHorizon ALERT
The Problem
Airports, facilities, and security teams need reliable visibility into nearby airspace, but many sites lack continuous, localized surveillance. Traditional radar and air traffic systems are costly and infrastructure-intensive, leaving operators without timely awareness of nearby aircraft or drones. FlightHorizon ALERT addresses this gap by providing site-level airspace monitoring and alerting without the complexity or cost of traditional systems.
The Solution
FlightHorizon ALERT is a cost-effective, site-level airspace monitoring and alerting system that observes local air traffic and presents activity through a shared, web-based interface. Designed for small regional airports, facilities, and security teams, ALERT combines ADS-B in and Remote ID into a streamlined, cloud-connected solution for monitoring crewed aircraft and drones without the infrastructure or cost of traditional radar systems.
Geofencing & Alerts
User-defined restricted zones with immediate visual and audible alerts on airspace entry or violation. All alert events are logged for review.
Real-Time Airspace Picture
Live tracking of crewed aircraft and Remote ID drones, including position, altitude, speed, and heading when available.
Cooperative Signal Monitoring
ADS-B in reception on 1090 MHz and 978 MHz UAT for monitoring cooperative aircraft in the local airspace.
Remote ID Detection
Bluetooth LE/long range, Wi-Fi NaN, ASTMF3411-22A and DIN EN 4709-002 compliant
Logging & Reporting
Continuous track logging with built-in dashboards and CSV exports
Product Tour
Live 3D airspace view that displays detected aircraft and drones along with predicted trajectories
Configurable geofencing allows teams to define site-specific airspace boundaries by area and altitude, establish restricted zones, and receive immediate alerts when aircraft or drones cross into monitored airspace.
Switch instantly between nine distinct base map views to match your priorities, whether you need terrain detail, satellite imagery, or simplfied clarity.
Replay airspace activity from any selected date and time to review traffic patterns and alert events.
Download detailed logs filtered by individual device types, including Remote ID and ADS-B in sources.
Use the reporting dashboard to visualize recorded alerts and sort activity by date or device type for focused analysis.
How FlightHorizon ALERT Works
Ideal Applications
- Small and regional airports
- Private airfields and heliports
- Industrial and corporate facilities
- Energy and infrastructure sites
- Emergency response and security teams
Field Use
At Skyway Range in Oklahoma, FlightHorizon ALERT was deployed with radar and ADS-B in to monitor local air traffic and automatically alert operators when aircraft entered the operating area. The system also logged airspace activity to support post-operation review and compliance documentation
