DronePort Network is proud to announce the launch of its groundbreaking Community Airspace Awareness Project (CAAP) at Ardmore Industrial Airpark and Mid America Industrial Park.

With the rise of drones and autonomous aircraft, airspace conflicts at low altitudes are becoming an increasing concern. CAAP provides a cost-effective solution, offering real-time airspace monitoring and safety enhancements for local airports and communities.

At the core of CAAP is Vigilant Aerospace’s FlightHorizon product, a cutting-edge system for airspace management. This advanced system will be operational at both Ardmore Industrial Airpark and Mid America Industrial Park, enabling efficient, real-time monitoring, immediate traffic alerting and detailed long-term traffic reporting.

“Our mission with CAAP is to empower local communities by giving them the tools to understand and manage their airspace,” said Craig Mahaney, CEO of DronePort Network.  “As aviation technology evolves, it’s critical for localities to stay ahead and informed, and CAAP provides a scalable, low-cost, introductory solution to meet that challenge with the flexibility to scale for the future.”

DronePort Network envisions this project as the first step in a larger framework, where additional capabilities like active surveillance and advanced traffic alerts for commercial drone operators can be integrated over time. By preparing communities like Pryor and Ardmore for the future of aviation, CAAP ensures safety and proactive airspace management for years to come.

DronePort Network has prior experience with FlightHorizon, which it currently uses at the Skyway36 droneport in Tulsa, which it manages for Osage, LLC.

Communities and organizations across the US interested in joining the CAAP network are encouraged to reach out for more program details. Applications are now being accepted, and a waitlist is open for the first cohort.
