In collaboration with the German Aerospace Centre (DLR), DFS Deutsche Flugsicherung GmbH has developed the NDMap tool to detect conflicts between manned and unmanned aircraft in German airspace at an early stage. NDMap can detect potential collisions or violations of safety distances and no-fly zones in real time. The algorithm works quickly and efficiently, even at high traffic densities. Initial tests have shown that the system is able to manage current air traffic and also take future growth in unmanned air traffic into account.
