Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B)
Real-time aircraft tracking and air-domain intelligence
Geospatial Intelligence provides access to global ADS-B data to support aviation monitoring, security operations, intelligence analysis and situational awareness. By integrating ADS-B with satellite imagery, AIS, OSINT and analytics, we deliver a complete picture of air and maritime activity – anywhere on the planet.
ADS-B enables continuous tracking of aircraft identity, position, altitude, speed and heading. Satellite-based ADS-B extends coverage far beyond terrestrial receivers, providing persistent visibility over oceans, remote regions and high-risk air corridors.

Satellite ADS-B coverage
We integrate ADS-B feeds into dashboards, analytical tools and intelligence workflows to support both operational monitoring and long-term pattern analysis

Why ADS-B matters
ADS-B allows organisations to:
- Monitor global aircraft movements in near real time
- Enhance air-domain awareness and operational planning
- Detect unusual flight behaviour or unauthorised activity
- Support border protection and security operations
- Improve emergency response and search-and-rescue coordination
- Combine air-tracking data with imagery and OSINT for deeper intelligence
Enhance air-domain awareness with trusted ADS-B intelligence
Get expert guidance on aircraft tracking data, coverage options and how ADS-B can be integrated with imagery, maritime data and open-source intelligence to support your mission
