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 characteristics, 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 automated evaluation of the digital twin to
assess the flight feasibility and weather-related risks
