SafeAirspace: Protecting Canada's Critical Infrastructure from Drones
Learn how SafeAirspace is helping airports, utilities, and government agencies detect and manage unauthorized drone activity near critical infrastructure.
The Growing Challenge
As drone adoption accelerates across Canada, so does the risk of unauthorized flights near sensitive locations. Airports, power stations, water treatment facilities, and government buildings all face increasing drone incursion events — some accidental, others intentional. Traditional security systems weren't designed to detect small, low-flying unmanned aircraft, leaving a significant gap in critical infrastructure protection.
SafeAirspace was built to close that gap. Our enterprise drone detection and airspace security platform gives organizations the awareness and tools they need to identify, track, and respond to drone activity in their vicinity.
How SafeAirspace Works
SafeAirspace combines multiple detection technologies into a unified platform:
- RF Detection — Radio frequency sensors identify drone control signals and telemetry data, providing real-time identification of drone make, model, and operator location.
- Radar Integration — Purpose-built drone radar units detect aircraft based on movement patterns and radar cross-section, even when RF signals are obscured.
- ADS-B & Remote ID — Integration with broadcast Remote ID and ADS-B receivers to correlate compliant drone traffic with detected signals.
- Camera Systems — Optical and thermal cameras provide visual confirmation and evidence capture for detected drone events.
Real-Time Alerting
When SafeAirspace detects a drone near your protected zone, your security team receives instant alerts with the drone's position, altitude, heading, and estimated operator location. Alerts are delivered through the SafeAirspace dashboard, mobile push notifications, and integration with existing security management systems. Every detection event is logged with full telemetry for post-incident analysis and reporting.
Deployed Across Canada
SafeAirspace is currently protecting critical infrastructure at multiple locations across the country, including regional airports, energy facilities, and government buildings. Each deployment is customized to the site's specific threat profile, terrain, and operational requirements.
We work closely with Transport Canada, NAV CANADA, and law enforcement agencies to ensure that our detection data supports the broader airspace safety ecosystem. When an unauthorized drone is detected, the right people get the right information at the right time.
