Ursa Space, Aireon Deliver Insights for U.S. Space Force Program
Tuesday, September 30, 2025
ITHACA, N.Y., Sept. 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Ursa Space Systems, a leading provider of space-based insights, and Aireon, the global leader in space-based air traffic surveillance, are partnering to provide time-critical sharable insights for U.S. Combatant Commands.
The two companies have produced several Operational Planning Products to the U.S. Space Force to meet unified combatant command needs.
Ursa Space, supplemented by Aireon's data, is extremely well-positioned to answer the call for dynamic, innovative, and reliable data for the Space Force. Ursa Space specializes in analytic offerings that incorporate a wide variety of data sources. Aireon's ADS-B and flight data provide Ursa Space a new domain to monitor when Combatant Commands seek answers to questions about geopolitical developments in their Area of Responsibility (AOR). Aireon's global data collections, integrated with Ursa Space's geospatial platform, provide valuable insights for monitoring and identifying changes in areas of interest..
"While not every tactical request from a Combatant Command specifically explicitly requires air domain data, we've found that understanding areas of interest often adds valuable context to our analytics," said George Flick, Senior Vice President of Ursa Space. "In many regions of the world, it complements Electro-Optical and Synthetic Aperture Radar imagery, as well as Radio Frequency sources. When we detect deviations, these changes can serve as early indicators of events."
Ursa Space used Aireon's collections to look for patterns. These aircraft activities can then be further correlated with ground-based operations.
"The partnership with Space Force and Ursa Space has been a great learning experience on how we can better serve a different kind of customer. Aireon's heritage is providing global real-time air surveillance for Air Traffic Management applications, so exposing that vast data set for critical historical analysis by new customers is an area of great interest. We're continuing to look for ways to bring other information to our offering, and make sure our data is easily accessible for a wider range of analysis," said Derek Fleck, Aireon Director of Business Development, Defense.
