Approximately half of the world’s airspace relies on Aireon’s space-based ADS-B technology for aircraft surveillance. Founded in 2011, Aireon provides real-time global air traffic monitoring anywhere on Earth. This service leverages Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) receivers, specifically designed for space, installed on each of the 66 satellites in Iridium NEXT—the second-generation satellite constellation by Iridium. These satellites form the backbone of Aireon’s advanced surveillance capabilities.
