Aireon has launched the first of its Data Dashboard products, the Safety Dashboard, which aims to ‘support and enhance air navigation service providers’ (ANSP) safety assurance programs by identifying leading indicators of the industry’s biggest operational risks’.
The company's Safety Dashboard is designed to help ANSPs ‘identify, monitor and analyze key leading indicators of risk in their airspace,’ with a web-based platform providing a visual representation of key risk indicators. Customers can subsequently compare their own data with others’, providing a proactive risk identification and mitigation strategy. The dashboard uses Aireon’s ADS-B data which is used by more than half the world’s ANSPs to safely manage their airspace.
Aireon vice president of customer affairs Peter Cabooter described the dashboard as “the first global safety product that comes with Aireon’s surveillance-quality data and has been built with the ANSP in mind”.
Aireon is collaborating with existing customers to develop and prioritise future metrics for the dashboard, including high-speed rejected takeoffs, a collision risk metric leveraging time to conflict, and an Oceanic Risk metric. These are expected to be implemented in the coming months.
In 2024 and 2025, Aireon will introduce further dashboards focused on operational and environmental metrics including fuel burn and emissions, contrails, and flight plan deviations.
