Airspace Awareness Starts with Reliable Drone Detection
Unauthorized drones can introduce security, safety, and operational risks to industrial facilities, public spaces, and restricted locations. Detecting relevant activity early helps security teams assess potential threats and coordinate an appropriate response.
An effective counter-drone approach connects detection technology with clear operational procedures, helping organizations address:
Unauthorized drone activity near sensitive or restricted areas
Limited visibility across large facilities and complex environments
The need to distinguish authorized flights from potential threats
Coordination between security teams, site operators, and response personnel
What Is an Anti-Drone System?
An anti-drone system, also known as a counter-drone system or Counter-Unmanned Aircraft System (Counter-UAS), combines technologies used to detect, track, and assess unmanned aircraft activity.
Depending on the selected configuration, a solution may combine radar, radio-frequency detection, electro-optical cameras, thermal imaging, or other sensors. Mitigation capabilities may also form part of the solution where the operating organization holds the required authorization.
The right configuration depends on the site’s environment, threat profile, coverage priorities, and integration requirements.
From Detection to Coordinated Response
01
DETECT
Monitor for potential drone activity using detection technologies suited to the operating environment. Sensor selection considers site conditions, surrounding activity, and coverage objectives.
02
TRACK
Follow detected activity to help teams understand its location, direction, and movement. Tracking capabilities support situational awareness as an event develops.
03
IDENTIFY
Assess available sensor data to help distinguish potential threats from authorized or non-threatening activity. Identification capabilities vary according to the system and available information.
04
RESPOND
Support informed decisions through alerts, established procedures, and authorized response options. Active mitigation is considered according to applicable requirements and the authority of the operating organization.
Anti-Drone Detection, Tracking & Response Capabilities
01
Drone Detection and Early Warning
Support awareness of potential drone activity with detection systems configured around your site. Available technologies can be assessed individually or as part of a combined sensor approach.
02
Tracking and Airspace Monitoring
Help security personnel monitor detected activity and understand its movement in relation to protected areas, operational zones, and sensitive assets.
03
Visual Verification and Threat Assessment
Where supported, optical and thermal sensors can help operators examine detected objects and assess the situation using available visual information.
04
Multi-Sensor Integration
Combine complementary detection technologies to support a broader operating picture. Integration options depend on the selected equipment, software, and project requirements.
05
Alerts and Security Workflows
Bring relevant alerts and event information into security operations, helping teams follow established escalation and response procedures.
06
Authorized Drone Mitigation Options
Evaluate compatible mitigation capabilities where permitted. The appropriate approach depends on the operational setting, potential effects on surrounding systems, and required approvals.
