Westshore Watch
Read full descriptionHide full description
Westshore Watch is a passive drone-detection platform built for law enforcement, public safety, and security operations. It receives FAA Remote ID broadcasts relayed from Westshore Watch sensor nodes and displays detected drones in real time on a live map — including flight path, altitude, speed, heading, and operator (pilot) location when transmitted. KEY CAPABILITIES - Live detection map — see active drones in your area as they broadcast, with continuous position tracking and flight-path history. - Operator location — when a drone transmits operator position, the pilot's location is shown on the map alongside the aircraft. - Remote ID decoding — reads standard FAA Remote ID (ASTM F3411) broadcasts, including drone serial/ID, position, and telemetry. - Sensor node integration — pairs with Westshore Watch detection nodes for wide-area passive coverage. - Deployment-based monitoring — organize detection coverage by deployment and view live activity per site. - Push notifications — get alerted when a new drone is detected in a monitored deployment. HOW IT WORKS Westshore Watch is a passive system — it listens for the Remote ID signals that compliant drones are required to broadcast. No active transmission, no interference with aircraft. Detection coverage requires Westshore Watch sensor hardware or an active deployment broadcasting nearby. WHO IT'S FOR Police departments, public-safety agencies, critical-infrastructure security teams, and event security operations that need airspace awareness around their facilities and operations. A Westshore Watch account and detection hardware (or access to an active deployment) are required to view live detections.
