AirSight adds RF detection analytics to AirGuard drone software

AirSight has launched Analytics for RF Detections, a new Layer 1 toolset inside AirGuard that helps security teams spot repeat drone activity, track pilot proximity and export findings faster. The update arrives as FAA drone sightings near airports continue to climb, making pattern analysis more useful for security and response teams.

Why it matters: - Security teams often see a drone once but need patterns to judge risk. The new analytics tools are designed to turn RF detections into repeatable findings, faster response decisions and shareable reports. - The timing matters as FAA reports of drones near airports continue to rise, with 600 sightings from April to June 2026, nearly double the 319 logged in the first quarter.

What happened: - AirSight announced Analytics for RF Detections (Layer 1), a new set of analytics tools inside AirGuard, the company’s drone detection software platform. - The tools are built for security managers and analysts working with AirGuard RF detections. - The update lets teams drill from a suspicious drone model to a single flight replay without re-entering filters. - Teams can also spot repeat offenders, identify risky flight patterns and share findings inside AirGuard.

The details: - The Top Offenders chart ranks drones by alert zone breaches and helps analysts see whether the same drone is returning. - Flights by Time Window groups activity into four windows: 6am to 6pm, 6pm to 9pm, 9pm to midnight and midnight to 6am. - Flights by Line of Sight groups flights by drone-to-pilot distance, from within 500 ft to beyond 1 mile. - The Flights per Max Altitude chart shows drones that flew unusually high, in bands from 100 ft to above 800 ft. - The Flights report now includes seven new columns: Drone to Pilot, Zones breached, Start location, End location, Pilot location, Start time and End time. - The new report fields put the pilot’s location and drone-to-pilot distance on every flight record. - Export to PDF creates a formatted report with charts and the filtered, sorted table as displayed on screen. - Teams can choose whether to include charts and can export the first page, the page on screen or all pages, up to 100. - Leadership, partners and authorities can read the exported report without AirGuard access.

Between the lines: - The product shift is less about raw detection and more about operational analysis. AirSight is making it easier to answer the questions security teams ask after a detection: who, how often, when and how close. - The emphasis on pilot location and line-of-sight distance suggests the workflow is aimed at moving from monitoring to ground response. - The PDF export feature also points to a broader use case: packaging technical data into a format that non-users can review quickly.

What's next: - AirSight’s workflow guides users from summary to model, to drone, to flight replay, then to exportable findings. - Teams can expect to use the new tools to identify patterns, investigate specific drones and share results with outside stakeholders more efficiently. - More information is available through AirSight's LinkedIn page and the company's YouTube channel.

The bottom line: - AirSight is adding a layer of analysis to AirGuard that helps security teams move from isolated drone detections to actionable, shareable intelligence.
