With the recent strong winds sweeping the UK, we analyzed how these conditions have affected flight operations at various airports. The attached visualization displays holdings and go-arounds from yesterday. Our findings indicate a notable increase in delays at EGAA, where the average delay doubled from the usual 16 minutes to 40 minutes, while other airports continued to experience typical delay times. Moreover, there was a decrease in flight numbers, decreasing from over 4.2k flights on Thursday and Friday to less than 2.8k by the weekend, likely affected by holiday scheduling.

Using data from Spire Weather & Climate and Spire Aviation, we tracked areas of clear air turbulence across the U.S. over the past few days. The color gradient moves from light blue, representing severe turbulence, to dark purple, indicating extreme turbulence. ⛈️ ✈️ Did you fly through any of these regions? 

We have looked at the recent eruption of Mount Etna in November to analyse the impact of ashes on air travel. Through the day almost 60 aircraft navigated through the area and the overall number of flight was impacted by 15% less flights.

GNSS jamming poses significant threats to the safety and efficiency of those operating in the air domain, potentially compromising everything from airline operations to national security. We leverage AI and ML technologies, predictive modeling, and our proprietary satellite constellation to deconstruct raw ADS-B data (NIC/NACp) and turn it into actionable intelligence with the highest level of accuracy.

Drones are revolutionizing industries from logistics to surveillance, driving the need for robust safety protocols in low-altitude airspace shared with manned aircraft. As traditional risk assessment methods are often overly conservative, our customer, Skyy Network, took innovation to the next level with their quantitative software solution powered by Spire Aviation’s aircraft position data.

🛰 “Repeated instances of GNSS interference have disrupted air traffic in recent times. This has caused delays, increased costs, negatively affected the environment, and ultimately compromised air traffic safety. The industry is in need of a reliable and resilient surveillance solution,” emphasized Philip Plantholt, General Manager of Spire Aviation, in a recent article diving into the EURIALO co-founded programme by European Space Agency - ESA.
