uAvionix Partners with Airwise to Enhance BVLOS Operations at Skyway Range
uAvionix has formed a strategic partnership with Airwise Solutions to integrate its FlightLine surveillance data into the Airwise Nexus platform, specifically for Skyway Range's BVLOS operations in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This collaboration, announced on August 18, 2026, aims to streamline drone operations by providing reliable, low-latency cooperative aircraft data without the need for local sensor deployment. The integration of uAvionix's FlightLine network with Airwise's platform enhances airspace awareness and supports the growing complexity of drone operations. By combining low-altitude ADS-B surveillance with enterprise UTM capabilities, the partnership enables operators to manage flights more effectively, ensuring safety and efficiency in BVLOS operations. The setup is designed to support a range of operational scales, from single flights to nationwide programs. Looking ahead, the immediate availability of this capability for range participants and Airwise enterprise customers signifies a significant step towards advanced drone operations. As the demand for integrated solutions in the drone industry increases, this partnership positions both uAvionix and Airwise as leaders in providing trusted data and operational support for the future of aviation in Tulsa and beyond.

Airwise Solutions Launches Nexus for Enhanced Sensor Integration in Airspace Awareness
Airwise Solutions has introduced Airwise Nexus, a new capability within its airwiseOS Operational Intelligence platform that enhances airspace awareness through sensor fusion. Nexus aggregates data from various airspace sensors, including radar, RF detection, Remote ID, ADS-B, and video, into a unified operating picture, facilitating better decision-making for organizations managing complex low-altitude airspace. This development is significant as it addresses the challenges faced by public safety agencies and infrastructure operators who often rely on multiple systems that operate independently. By correlating sensor data in real-time, Nexus simplifies the monitoring process, allowing users to respond more effectively to airspace activity. Initial applications include public safety, drone-as-first-responder programs, and counter-UAS operations. Looking ahead, Airwise Nexus is positioned as a hardware-independent platform, enabling sensor manufacturers to integrate their systems at no cost. This open integration model allows customers to utilize a variety of hardware, enhancing the value of their airspace awareness systems. No further timeline was disclosed at the time of publication.
