Drone monitoring data from October 6-14, 2018.
A "detection" is an instance in time where the sensor(s) locate a drone. This can include:
1) turning the drone on with no flight
2) a drone flying in and out of detection range
3) drone flying in and out of line of sight or
4) multiple sensors picking up the same drone in flight
Aerial Armor has additional analytics that groups similar detections based on time and distance apart into a single flight. This more accurately represents drone flight instances.
Temporary Flight Restriction - a temporary region set by the FAA to restrict drones from flying. Can be time dependent.
Data represents entire detection region during the 9 day period.
NOTE: This represents ALL flights for the entire duration including hours that were outside of the TFR timeframe (legal flights as well).
Data represents TFR region only during the 9 day period from 5am - 12 noon and 6pm - 9pm.
Within the TFR Region
NOTE: flights may not actually be above 400 feet AGL if the terrain rises up, mountains are underneath, etc. Max Altitude is based off of take-off location.
Total Detection Range
NOTE: flights may not actually be above 400 feet AGL if the terrain rises up, mountains are underneath, etc. Max Altitude is based off of take-off location.
Data collected from Friday Oct. 5th - Sunday, Oct. 14th (event started ~5am on Saturday, Oct. 6th). Total deployment was 10 days vs. 9 days for the event.
Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFR) were in place every morning from 5:30am to Noon in addition to several evening events. The morning TFRwas a 4 mile radius around the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiestaproperty.
Total number of flights within the TFR were 46 based on 40 unique drones.Some of these TFR violations originated from off of the AIBF property.

Rules and regulations differ by country, but generally speaking, flying near an airport without proper approvals is a safety risk and can result in large fines and even jail time.
All drones can be tracked, but the tracking methodologies differ based on the drone type and size.
The three most common tracking methodologies are RF, radar, and thermal camera tracking.
Aerial Armor does offer temporary drone detection solutions for sites that don't need a permanent installation.
