Born from a 2015 Nepal rescue-mission insight, Swiss company INVOLI SA builds hardware and software that detects and visualizes low-altitude air traffic for safer drone operations. Its Swiss-made receivers, live platform and data services support BVLOS flights by showing manned and unmanned traffic, including aircraft whose GPS position is unavailable through multilateration. INVOLI operates a surveillance network of more than 550 receivers across the U.S., Europe and Australia, and its quality system is ISO 9001:2015 certified.
