GE integrates Aireon's space-based ADS-B into its Airspace Insight optimization tech
EVENDALE, Ohio - GE Aerospace in Cincinnati announced it will integrate Aireon’s space-based automatic dependent surveillance-broadcast (ADS-B) data into Airspace Insight, a platform designed to analyze airspace efficiency and optimize flight operations.
Aireon’s ADS-B network provides real-time aircraft tracking worldwide, including remote and oceanic regions where traditional ground-based surveillance is limited. By incorporating this data, Airspace Insight - co-developed by MapLarge - will offer airlines improved aircraft positioning analysis to enhance flight safety and operational efficiency.
