2023 AGENDA

Inspection of NavAids systems via measurement drones is currently the talk of the town. But where do we really stand with this technology? And above all, do the announced concepts really meet the level of requirements for such safety-critical systems. Based on their experience in this field and several years of R&D, Colibrex and FCS Flight Calibration Services have introduced on the market the NavAidDrone. With this presentation, we will explain the different challenges that had to be mastered: from the necessary technical system integration - then a measurement system is much more than just a receiver attached on a drone - to operational and safety-critical constraints. With some examples of concrete situations and an inside view of the NavAidDrone software, we will explain why an all-in-one hardware and software integration are so crucial!
