Integration with UTM systems and air situation data
Real-time tracking via LTE for maximum transparency
Reception of FLARM and ADS-B signals
The HOD4track Deutschland V3 is a high-performance LTE transponder for real-time tracking and visualization of drones in airspace. The compact tracking module transmits position data via cellular networks to UTM systems, enabling continuous monitoring of the air situation. In addition, the system receives signals from manned aircraft, such as FLARM and ADS-B, and integrates them into the display. This provides a comprehensive situational picture for safe flight operations. The HOD4track meets the requirements for BVLOS authorizations and is particularly well-suited for professional drone operations with high standards for safety and transparency in airspace.
The HOD4track V3 is used for professional drone tracking and integration into controlled airspace. Typical applications include BVLOS missions, infrastructure inspections, government operations, and industrial applications. By combining LTE tracking with air traffic data, the system provides a precise situational overview and enhances safety in low-altitude airspace.
