In the course of work to ensure the safety of the Kiev heliport Kyiv Challenge, round-the-clock monitoring of drone activity in the center of Kiev is carried out with analysis of the UKIH RPAS-P zone and UKP24, which affects the Pechersky, Goloseevsky, Darnytsky and Dnieper districts.
During May, from the 1st to the 31st, 2919 drone detections were recorded, which corresponds to 681 unique device serial numbers. Each drone was spotted an average of 4 times.
During 1,343 detections, the maximum flight altitude of drones exceeded 120 meters, which is 46% of the total number of recorded flights.
During 345 detections, the maximum flight altitude of drones exceeded 300 meters, which is 11.8% of the total number of recorded flights.

To ensure the security of the Kyiv Challange heliport and round-the-clock monitoring of drone activity in the center of Kyiv, Aeroscope equipment from DroneUA was used. The system allows you to track up to 90% of consumer and industrial drones.
In the countries of Eastern Europe and the Caucasus, Aeroscope technologies are presented by DroneUA.
