How It Works

From the call to the flight review

  1. STEP 01

    Coverage comes online

    Three Remote ID sensors across your city give you live drone detection. ADS-B data for manned aircraft is streamed into AirSight’s AirGuard.

  2. STEP 02

    Check the airspace before every DFR launch

    Before launch, operators can open the live map on AirGuard to see every drone, manned aircraft, and DFR unit nearby. That way, your team makes a clear go or no-go call in seconds instead of guessing what’s overhead.

  3. STEP 03

    Fly your DFR aircraft with live awareness

    During the flight, operators track nearby drones, manned aircraft, and their DFR fleet in real time on the same map on AirGuard they checked before launch.

  4. STEP 04 Coming Soon

    Let proximity alerts do the watching

    If your DFR aircraft gets too close to another aircraft, your team gets an instant alert on the platform of their choice.

  5. STEP 05

    Send the threat straight to your DFR platform

    AirGuard detects UAV threats in real time and shares enriched data with your DFR platform in seconds. The operator reviews the data and deploys a DFR to the exact threat location.

  6. STEP 06

    Review every DFR flight

    After each mission, use Records and Playback to review nearby flight paths, and Expanded Nationwide Drone Search to see where a spotted drone in your zone has been seen across the country.

DFR platform providers, manufacturers, and public-safety agencies already have enough to manage, so we created AirSight Metro for DFR. It gives them the airspace awareness they need to grow their programs and the deconfliction that keeps every flight safe.

Talk to our team
What is AirSight Metro for DFR?

An airspace awareness service for teams with Drone as First Responder programs. Three Remote ID sensors provide live drone detection, plus ADS-B feeds for manned aircraft, Expanded Nationwide Drone Search, and drone detection data integrated with your DFR system, all at an affordable price.

What is included?

You get drone detection from three Remote ID sensors, ADS-B data on manned aircraft, and historical Records, Playback, and Analytics. Expanded Nationwide Drone Search lets you look up drones detected in your zone across AirGuard’s full national database. Drone detection data is also integrated with your DFR system, so when a threat is detected, it’s pushed to your DFR platform in seconds, and once reviewed, a DFR unit can be sent to the threat’s location.

Do we need to install sensors?

Yes. The plan includes three Remote ID sensors with 45–65 sq. mi. of overlapping 360° drone detection coverage, or any layout that fits your needs.

Does it work with our DFR platform?

Yes. AirGuard shares enriched detection data with your DFR platform within seconds, including drone make and model, live drone and pilot location, altitude and flight path. The operator reviews the data and deploys a DFR to the exact threat location.

What are proximity alerts, and when are they available?

Proximity alerts will notify your team in real time when a DFR aircraft gets too close to a manned aircraft or another drone. Alerts will reach operators through your DFR software, an API integration, a command-center dashboard, the AirGuard mobile app or push notifications. This feature is coming soon.

How is it different from AirSight Metro?

AirSight Metro is a citywide drone detection program shared by every department in a city, county, or town. AirSight Metro for DFR is an airspace awareness layer for teams with DFR programs, offering deconfliction before and during each flight and data delivered straight into your DFR platform, all with minimal infrastructure.

How much does AirSight Metro for DFR cost?

AirSight Metro for DFR is $13,950 per year, billed annually on a 3-year plan with no hidden fees. It includes three Remote ID sensors, live ADS-B feeds, drone detection data integrated with your DFR system, Expanded Nationwide Drone Search, and Records, Playback and Analytics.
