“The AirMap UTM platform is designed to provide a real-time operating picture of the airspace both for manned and unmanned aircraft,” AirMap chairman and co-founder, Ben Marcus, said. “We have partnered with Honeywell to deliver an easy to use drone agnostic device as a practical way to start managing drone traffic in any environment today.” The tracker device is available as a proof of concept for testing. The device will enable 4G and satellite connectivity to UTMs tracking drones. California-headquartered AirMap is the world’s leading drone airspace management platform.
