NOVA CAST

Less planning, more flights.

NOVA CAST Technology

YOUR 7-DAY
FORECAST

What NOVA CAST does

NOVA CAST is a tool to automate the identification of flight windows for autonomous drone services. It provides customized analyses of operating conditions for the next seven days on an hourly basis enabling standardized UAV flight planning. With this drone flight management software you can bring your business to the next level.

Automated flight planning for your drone operations

NOVA CAST is a software for planning commercial drone flights. It allows automated assessment of flight feasibility based on the prevailing weather conditions. For this purpose, UAS flights are simulated taking into account aircraft performance character-istics, operational limits, and high-resolution weather data, resulting in an automated assessment of the flight feasibility for the next seven days. Flight Forecast enables the next generation of UAV flight planning!

Automated validation of flight windows for every drone mission

- Integrate specific drone performances and               limitations.
- Customize worldwide high-resolution weather

data out of more than 1'000 parameters.
- Receive automated forecasts along individual         routes and altitude profiles.

The technology behind NOVA CAST consists of two pillars. First, the advanced trajectory simulation which creates an accurate digital twin of any flight. Second, our Smart Evaluation Algorithms that allow an auto-mated evaluation of the digital twin to assess the flight feasibility and weather-related risks.
