New capability moves airspace security beyond local geo-fences, allowing safety teams to analyze drone flight patterns and history on a national scale.
(PRUnderground) December 1st, 2025
As unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) usage continues to proliferate across sectors ranging from utilities to prisons, security professionals face a growing challenge: obtaining a complete picture of airspace activity. Addressing the need for deeper forensic capabilities, Airsight announces the integration of Nationwide Data Access within its AirGuard platform. This feature shifts the paradigm of airspace security from reactive, localized detection to proactive, data-driven intelligence.
Traditionally, drone detection systems have been limited to a specific “geo-fence”—a virtual perimeter defined by the hardware installed at a single facility. While effective for immediate alerts, this siloed approach often leaves security teams without context regarding a drone’s history or intent.
The Shift to Networked Intelligence
Airsight’s Expanded Search capability bridges this gap by allowing administrators to query specific Drone IDs across the entire AirGuard national flight database. This moves investigations beyond the user’s default detection zone, granting access to a comprehensive history of millions of recorded flights.
“Effective airspace security requires more than just knowing a drone is overhead right now; it requires understanding behavior patterns,” said Robert Tabbara, Founder of Airsight. “By aggregating data nationwide, we provide the context necessary to distinguish between a hobbyist and a potential threat that has scouted multiple sensitive locations.”
Educational Insights: How Nationwide Data Works
The Expanded Search feature is designed to aid law enforcement and security directors in forensic analysis and risk assessment. Key capabilities include:
- Cross-Location Pattern Recognition: Administrators can search for a specific Drone ID to determine if the aircraft has been detected at sensitive facilities across the country.
- Visualizing Flight History: The platform utilizes heatmaps to visualize where a specific drone has been detected nationwide, helping analysts understand frequent flight points and pilot habits.
- Forensic Data Export: For detailed investigations, users can export nationwide search results into CSV files. This data includes critical evidence such as flight start and end times, drone models, and precise GPS coordinates of detection locations.
Applications for Public Safety
This networked approach is particularly vital for critical infrastructure, airports, and correctional facilities. For example, security teams can now determine if a drone breaching a stadium perimeter has a history of flying near other high-risk venues, or if a drone detected near a prison has been logged in previous contraband delivery attempts.
By layering historical data with real-time tracking of drones and pilot locations, organizations can develop stronger Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and improve their overall security response.
