AirData UAV, a supplier of flight data management solutions, has announced a new technology partnership with Skydio, the U.S. drone manufacturer. The new partnership will allow Skydio Cloud to integrate into AirData’s robust fleet management platform—providing customers with a seamless and comprehensive fleet management solution.
“We have used AirData for the past several years and just recently introduced the Skydio platform to our fleet. AirData and Skydio offer unique capabilities that are critical to our team’s mission, and we are thrilled about the new integration and its ease-of-use,”
said David Roberts, Oklahoma City Police Department.
Skydio is widely used in the enterprise and public sectors and leads the industry in autonomous drone technology. Integrating with Skydio Cloud will broaden AirData’s ability to better serve customers and their multifaceted fleets while giving Skydio customers a reliable way to track and manage their fleets, oversee compliance and maintenance, and mitigate risk with under the hood transparency.
“AirData is thrilled to work with Skydio to now include the autonomous drone powerhouse in our platform,” said Eran Steiner, Founder and CEO of AirData. “AirData and Skydio share the drive for a safer and smarter drone ecosystem, and we are excited to jointly focus on increasing flight awareness and facilitate safer, more efficient operations.”
With an API-driven integration, AirData automatically retrieves Skydio 2, Skydio X2, and the Skydio 2+ flight data, meeting compliance requirements, discovering early signs of problems to prevent surprises, while tracking maintenance, providing detailed operational reports to users of the system.
As an additional benefit, Skydio pilots will soon be able to Live Stream footage from their Skydio drone to the AirData platform without any additional hardware. The easy-to-use interface will offer 1-second latency over standard mobile hotspots, providing real-time visibility for remote viewers.
