Airside & Turnaround — incursion, FOD and the milestones in between

Airside detection has to be milestone-aware. Not “vehicle on apron”, but “catering truck approaching before chocks confirmed”. Fogsphere reads the sequence, not just the object.

Safety

Protect people where aircraft, cranes, vehicles and passengers share the same ground.

Security

Hold the perimeter, the waterside, the gate and every restricted zone.

Operational Intelligence

Read turn time, stand and berth utilisation and passenger flow from cameras already in place.

How Fogsphere sees an apron and movement area

A live operations layer on top of the cameras already covering your movement areas, stands and apron roads.

Airside safety

Movement areas, stop bars and everything that should not be there

Runway and taxiway incursion

Runway and taxiway incursion and stop-bar violations, detected against the movement-area geometry you configure.

FOD detection

Foreign object debris on runways, taxiways and stands, flagged with location so the sweep is targeted.

Wildlife and bird analytics

Wildlife and bird hazard analytics across movement areas and the airfield boundary.

Obstacle and vehicle detection

Obstacle, vehicle and person detection in the movement area, supporting ICAO Annex 14 obstacle-control evidence.

Stand zones and wingtip clearance

Stand zone occupancy, wingtip clearance and GSE proximity during arrival, servicing and pushback.

Fuelling exclusion zones

Fuelling exclusion zones, smoke and vape detection and unsafe activity within the refuelling envelope.

Turnaround intelligence

The sequence, not the snapshot

Milestone tracking

Chocks on, bridge connected, fuelling started, catering, cleaning and pushback tracked as timestamped milestones.

On-time performance

Turnaround duration against plan, late-resource alerts and the specific step where the delay started.

GSE behaviour

GSE speed, unsafe parking, near-miss detection and dwell against the next scheduled movement.

Stand and gate utilisation

Stand and gate utilisation, aircraft dwell and resource availability across the day.

Airside worker safety

PPE, contractors and night shifts

PPE by airside zone

PPE by airside zone for staff, contractors and night shifts, checked per task rather than per gate pass.

Vehicle and pedestrian segregation

Pedestrian and vehicle segregation on the apron and service roads, with near-miss and speed alerts.

Work zones and barriers

Construction and maintenance work-zone safety, barrier state and unauthorised entry into an active work area.

Safety event evidence

Runway and apron hazard capture, near-miss evidence, trend dashboards and corrective-action workflows for the SMS.
